It’s the rainy season in Tokyo now, but the forecast is for a wet weekend followed by a couple of weeks of sweltering temperatures. Even though it’s relatively cool, I’m sweating like a pig. I feel for our Aussie plants, many of which also struggle with the humidity of the Japanese summer.
This week was an excruciatingly busy one and I made lots of blunders. Fortunately, our garden has plenty of beautiful flowers at the moment, and they provided some delightful sights.
Amid the fumbles, I got a great look around at the Intermediatheque museum in the Kitte building in Marunouchi, and was thrilled by some of the slightly bizarre exhibits, which are dominated by osteology specimens that give plenty a boner, I bet.
Not far from there I got to check out the district’s amazing Aussie garden, which is a real delight and beautifully curated throughout the year.
My cycling has been drastically curtailed again this year, but I got to ride a little bit. And probably could have ridden more if I’d focused on taking action instead of remaining worried about whether an expected heavy rainfall would hit today before I have to attend a meeting tonight. It didn’t!
