Today is Thursday, April 4th, and the new fiscal year (in Japan) has begun.

Since I didn't have a transfer this year, I think I'll be staying at my current workplace for at least another year.
There is a cherry blossom-lined street near my house where it might be fully in bloom around this time. So, I decided to take a walk there.
I left home and passed through a residential area.

I saw one of the residential area windows. There were simple decorations with LEDs flashing like Christmas illuminations. However, I don't believe it's the season for events like decorating with lights. I thought it might be for a child's birthday or something.
I arrived at the cherry blossom-lined street.

Work seems to be getting busy with things I need to study. On the personal side, I want to write a blog.
Regarding the blog, I intend to do the following:
In Japan, April 1st marks the beginning of the new fiscal year.
