Tuesday Morning

Yesterday was not a day for traveling or any kind of outdoors activity. It was wet and cold. Early in the morning we had a light rain which quickly turned to a heavy and consistent downpour. Fortunately this country is so used to heavy rains their drainage and flood control systems almost eliminate the threat of floods.


Today is looking much nicer. To the East, nothing but clear blue skies. There was a thick fog this morning due to the earth warming up quickly and evaporating what water it held. There are some nonthreatening clouds over to the West. They won't prevent me to exploring another city today. The only threat that exist today is the humidity. It warmed up so quickly this morning the air is now thick and causes one to break into a sweat very easily. I guess I'll have to dress very casual and walk slowly. Great for taking photos.

Turtles in Japan are not so different from those in the US. They all love to hang out on a log an a warm spring day.
