In the Middle of Golden Week

I don't know the name of this white flower.

It's in the middle of Golden Week now.

Golden Week is the period from April 29th to May 6th when there are four national holidays in Japan.

I haven't gone on a trip this year's Golden Week.

When I went to tennis courts by car, I caught a glimpse of milk vetch flower fields yesterday.

I stopped my car and took some snap shots.

After coming back home, my wife and I went out for lunch.

'Asian Bistro Gift 239' is the name of a cafe which opened in front of my home several weeks ago.

It was our first visit there yesterday. 
Foods were nice and the owner of the shop was very friendly; we enjoyed talking about foods.


Golden Week national holidays are followings.
 
 Day of Showa; anniversary of the late Emperor Showa,
 Constitution Memorial Day,
 Greenery Day,
 and Children's Day

  1. Such lovely purple fields ! And the food looks great ( as usual ) :) Looking at the leaves the white flower bush is almost certainly a viburnum. A bit of Googling tells me it's a viburnum plicatum, know as the japanese snowball ( (Japanese: yabudemari, oodemari) more specifically the snowball flower cultivar.
