Cherry blossoms

Spring has finally come. Now we can see truly lovely cherry blossoms here and there. During this time of year, people go on a picnic to see wonderful views under the sun, and sometimes under the moon. They get together around cherry trees and eat, drink, sing and chat. I've heard that this custom called Hanami used to be a rite of appreciation to gods, but today's one seem to me that one of reasons, or excuses, for people to drink in public.
