Sunburned Nose

Harbor Land in Kobe

It has become much cooler in the evening these days. I took a walk yesterday evening for the first time in two months. I could forget the lingering summer heat in the daytime. I didn't sweat at all and cool early autumn breeze comforted me a great deal. Some middle-aged men and schoolboys were jogging and some women were walking briskly. Some girls were chatting merrily on their way home from school. They got a tan and looked very happy.

Dear Anima
I can't find your blog this morning. I feel sad to know you have disappeared. I like your photos, especially the last one. Your partner and you are in the dense mist. Good luck!

The sky was covered with a thick layer of cloud early in the morning, but it clears up now.
Happily, cool wind is blowing. I wonder if the rainy season has already finished in my area. Three-day weekend and summer vacation are approaching. Do you have any plans?

I want to be wrapped in moist summer mist at Mt. Rokko. This picture is ROKKOSAN GLASS HOUSE wrapped in mist.

It's very hot and humid from this morning. I'd like to go up Mt. Rokko again. The temperature on the mountain is a few degrees lower. In spite of the rainy season, we have not had much rain so far. Sunny marks lines up in a row in the coming ten days on a TV weather forecast. Scorching hot summer is just around the corner.

Yesterday I attended the English conversation club(90 minutes)in the morning and haiku in English club(120 minutes) in the afternoon. I'm glad to have opportunities to speak English. I can check it out if my daily effort in learning English at home works in both clubs. I'm not good at speaking English still now, but writing English is surely improving my speaking ability little by little. I hope so.
