There is an abandoned hat (or an old house) nearby. In the same property, I can see a tall old Ume tree from my sight. This tree does not provide fruit. ( the other type make apricots) From the last week, the flowers are blooming, which tells me that the new Spring is almost there.
By the way, nobody can ignore the news of Coronavirus now in Japan. A huge foreign vessel had been forced to stop on the sea near Yokohama harbour yesterday in order to get all passengers and crews total 3,400 people for the medical check, then found 10 people were positive with that virus, according to Japan local news.
Residential areas I saw about half of the people wear a doctor's mask. In the supermarket too. Many of pharmacy have not enough stocks of the doctor's mask now. And I could not buy an ethanol bottle yesterday. It is a shortage. The shop clerk said, " Suppliers are rushing up, but we don't know when it comes to our shop and to elsewhere too." I 've got nervous. That phenomenon is scary. It is not about own protection. I just want to make an original skin lotion with the ethanol for the self-use.
Hope that everything gets normal and people have been infected with the virus will be cured as soon as possible.
