I do think the flowers are bigger than usual. Last year, the flowers on this tree were not this big. Probably because of the warm winter.
In these ten years, the cherry season has changed. When I was at school, cherries are for April, for our 入学式 or 始業式 (start of the school year - in Japan schools start in the first week of April). Now it's for 終業式 (end of the school year) which is around 25 March.
