Rin checks the temperature and finds it to be a mild 19 degrees. She decides that a jacket will suffice for the day. As she reflects on her grandfather's advice about the best time for an outing, she realizes that the short window at the end of March is perfect. It's her first solo camping trip in a long time. She drives to a remote campsite and enjoys the quiet and the blooming cherry trees.
While setting up her tent, Rin observes another group camping with their car and considers trying that someday. She decides to take a walk and encounters two campers, Kotani and Ogawa. Due to her camping knowledge, they mistake Rin for a student. They chat about camping, and Ogawa offers to take Rin's trash since she can't carry it on her scooter. They exchange tips on leaving no trace, a principle Rin learned from her grandfather.
For lunch, Rin cooks noodles with tomatoes and spinach using a recipe from a camping cookbook. She enjoys the meal, noting that the tomatoes are well-cooked yet half-raw. Meanwhile, Nadeshiko and her sister Sakura take a cherry blossom outing and discover a secluded park in full bloom. Next, they plan to visit Mount Minobu, but the parking lot is full, so they decide to enjoy the blossoms by the roadside instead.
Back at the campsite, Rin decides to visit a hot spring and reminisces about her past camping trips with Nadeshiko. At the hot spring, she runs into Ogawa again, who suggests a scenic cherry blossom route to her. Rin considers biking but opts for the convenience of her moped instead. She plans to continue her cherry blossom tour the next day and meet up with her friends for more camping adventures.
