Happy 4th of July! My second July 4th in Japan-not a holiday HERE, of course, but a good day anyway. I went to Starbucks and Wendy's to celebrate! (Well, not really to celebrate...) The special promotion hamburger at Wendy's right now is the curry double cheeseburger --WOW, it was great! And I had a green tea frappuccino (uh-oh; I'm starting to like coffee-ish beverages!). It's really fun sometimes to see the Japanese take on American culture.
It's still officially the rainy season here right now, but it doesn't seem to be as rainy this year as it was last year during this time. It did rain during the night, and then was cloudy and VERY humid this morning. In the low 80s with humidity over 90%, so it felt much hotter than it really was. A huge storm passed by just to the east of the city earlier this evening. I could see flashes of lightning on the horizon about every ten seconds for several minutes, but it didn't quite make it here. Very amazing clouds though! One of those times that I wished I had my camera with me.
I'm going to a tea ceremony tomorrow, so I'm looking forward to an interesting culture experience.
More later . . .
