CHAPTER 4 ~ CREATING A NEW LIFE IN A NEW YEAR
Cherry Blossom Festival

February 8
Next year for sure I'm going to the Cherry Blossom Festival. It's held at Church Row, a small park in Waimea fronting several churches (but not ours).

Can you tell which way the wind blows in Waimea from this picture?
The Cherry Blossom Festival is a celebration of all things Japanese. They are an important part of the cultural mix on the Big Island.

Japanese tourists are especially important to us. Every tourist magazine has a Japanese language version. Every resort and large real estate business has Japanese speaking employees to help them. Businesses make sure they know they are welcome with signs in Japanese. Even the National Parks have signage in Japanese.
