Hello, this is Harada.

It's finally here.
Golden Week is coming.

According to the calendar, it will be a consecutive holiday starting next Wednesday.
As early as possible, some people will have a long holiday starting tomorrow, the 29th.
You must be here.



Knowing the arrival of spring through the blooming of cherry blossoms
When the cherry blossoms finish scattering
This time it repeated rain and fine weather, and the temperature gradually rose
The leaves on the trees begin to grow green all at once
The season of fresh green is approaching.

"Green leaves of trees..."

On describing green things as blue
I've always wondered
On a TV program the other day, foreigners
I have a question, "Why is the green of the traffic light called blue in Japan?"
I was also curious about the reason, and I was hooked on that program.

In Japan, from ancient times, in the Nara and Heian periods,
There are only four words that describe colors: black, white, red, and blue.
It seems that I have expressed all the colors I see with those four.

Green apple, green juice, green laver, etc.
Even now, there are many remnants of the time when green was expressed as blue.
For the same reason, he said, traffic lights.

For traffic lights
It seems that it is decided by law to call it "green light".
It seems that it was decided to express it as a "green light" in the prewar law.
Because many people continued to call it "green light" after that
It is said that it was decided to express it as "green light" again in the postwar law.



Now this flower
Every year during Golden Week in our garden
Dogwood trees blooming in full bloom.

Dogwood is a deciduous tree with beautiful deep red leaves in autumn.
Flowers bloom only once a year, in the spring season.
among the trees in the garden
It is also the tree that I am most looking forward to flowering.

To the flowers of this tree that make me feel the warm spring
You will naturally feel more open and active.


here we go
I'm worried about tomorrow
This is the weather during Golden Week.
according to the weather forecast
There are many sunny days, and the temperature will be warmer than 20 degrees.
Doesn't it look pretty good?

Even riders who like motorcycles and leather jackets can endure the cold in the middle of winter.
I'm sure you've been waiting for this warm spring season.
If that happens, I can't be quiet anymore.


mild and refreshing climate

Fresh green nature, motorcycles, leather jackets, and friends
Being able to make time to fully face each other
throughout the year as well
There is no other than Golden Week.


Are you ready to go out? !
