It's really summer.
This year the rainy season (梅雨) has gone on much longer than normal. Weeks longer. I like rain in small doses. I actually enjoy a rainy Saturday or two. But needing an umbrella every day and forgetting to bring it home every second night takes its toll.
However, the sun has again risen in Japan (or at least Tokyo). Yesterday was a smouldering 35 degrees (actually, I forgot to check the temperature yesterday, but it certainly felt at least that hot). Today is around 33 and it has yet to rain.
I'm looking forward to our week of real summer a lot. It's going to be awesome.
Oh, also, we're going to Vietnam for a week in September. Nathan, if you still read my blog, you should mail me suggestions, and I'll review them carefully.
