"It is not enough to simply visit a country, for that does not mean successful travelling, nor imply that one has seen the land. The aim of the traveller should be to be at the right time at the right place. Spring is apt to be cold and dreary in Japan. There are many days of mist and rain, yet the wanderer who can control his steps makes a big mistake in losing the joys of the cherry season."
