Cherry Blossoms (Sakura) can be viewed from January to June in different regions in Japan, but most of cherry blossom festivals fall between March to May. This event is an annual festival held in Japan during the spring season. Festival dates are usually determined with reference to cherry blossom forecasts and vary from year to year.
Hanami which literally means flower viewing; are held all over Japan in spring. In hanami parties, people have fun, drinking, eating, and have a picnic under sakura trees. For this year's hanami's party; SN's family sambut dua hari berturut-turut on last weekend.On Saturday (9/4/2011) evening, kami singgah kat sungai dekat rumah kami. We had our hanami party sambil makan onigiri dan potato chips saja as we didnt really plan to picnic there. Sungai ni I lalu tiap2 hari pergi dan balik ke universiti. Itu yang membuak-buak nak posing kat situ sebab setiap hari duk tengok cantik dan damai je dereten pokok2 sakura tu di sepanjang tebing sungai ni.
Nazhan yang baru bangun tidur masa tu terpaksa ikutkan je lah perangai gedik mommy nya ini hohoho. Mula2 monyok jugak lah si kecik tu bila di ajak posing, tapi lepas tu dia pulak yang over posing sambil mengejar burung2 merpati kat situ.
Our second hanami Party for this year was held in conjunction with an event made by other Malaysians in Fukuoka on Sunday (10/4/2011). This event has now become the annual activity for Malaysians in Fukuoka.
Held in Kasuga Koen, our family arrived at the place at 10 a.m. As we are amongst the early bird to arrive there, we get the privileged to choose the best spot for our Hanami party. It is common to see mats with no people lying on the ground in order to get the best spot. Nasib baik kami awal, dapat spot yang menarik dan terbaik jugak; di bawah rimbunan pokok2 sakura di atas tanah yang landai. Memang berbaloi2 kami datang awal.
As usual, we had a blast of Malaysian foods that are hard to resist. There were nasi beriani, nasi hujan panas, nasi lemak, mee goreng, kuey teow goreng, bihun putih, mee kari, ayam berempah, ayam bakar, cakes, muffins, puddings, and many more. Sebaik sahaja doa makan siap di baca, maka dengan semangat juang yang tinggi I pun serbu makanan2 tu. Isk3x, buruk lantak betul.
During the hanami party, 3 new undergraduate students and 1 new post graduate student who have just arrived from Malaysia; were introduced to the other members of FUKU(3)M club. 2 orang dari Johor, sorang dari KL dan sorang lagi dari Penang. Hopefully, they will enjoy their new life here in Fukuoka as much as we do.
There were also performances from a music band at the park. Agaknya band ni tengah berlatih untuk perform on a special event kot, tapi sebab diorang berlatih kat padang tu maka dapatlah pengunjung2 Kasuga Park menikmati jugak performance diorang tu sambil makan2.

+- Nazhan & Daddy kusyuk tengok performance -+
+- ewah, siap lambai2 tangan lagi budak kecik ni -+
+- tumpang posing kat basikal Nazhan, nasib baik tak patah -+
Mula2 sampai kat park tu, Nazhan agak moody sebab kena bangun tidur awal tapi lepas main2 kat playground terus mood dia OK. Mood mommy pulak tak berapa nak OK sebab kena temankan dia main kat bawah terik mentari tu *takut hitam sebab tak apply sun block cream* eheh.
Di sebabkan mood dia baik jugak hari tu, Nazhan dah tak jealous pun bila mommy dukung baby lain. Mood baik jugak hari tu bila mana dia tak kisah kawan2 lain main basikal dia dan bola dia. Sebabnya Nazhan pun macam mommy lah, bila dah ngadap makanan..lupa dah dengan keadaan di sekeliling ekekeke.
+- Nazhan tak sabar2 nak makan, bawak pinggan dan bersedia nak serbu makanan-+
+- muka ceria sebab dah kenyang -+
The party that begin at 11 a.m ended at 4 p.m. Overall, it was just a simple picnic where he have the chance to eat Malaysian food here in Fukuoka. Though it was just a simple picnic, it was definitely a memorable moment that we surely enjoy. Tambah2 lagi best bila angin bertiup, kelopak sakura akan gugur...cantik sangat2 tak boleh nak di terangkan dengan kata-kata.
Kalau hari2 biasa semua sibuk dengan study masing2, walaupun tinggal di kawasan dekat2 jer masa weekdays memang tak jumpa lansung lah. Bila ada aktiviti on weekend macam ni baru lah syok nak sembang dan borak puas2 sambil bergossip sikit2 ekekkeke.
Last but not least, gambar beramai-ramai berlatarbelakngkan sakura dan langit yang biru. Memang cun habis ah!. Gambar ihsan dari blog Paan. Kalau nak tengok gambar2 lain lagi yang super super superb, jenguklah blog Paan. Tata titi tutu tete toto.
