Oppressively hot summer. Oppressively hot summer in Japan. “Arghhh!”
I say.
I am now officially on vacation for the next 9 days. It is
the Obon (holiday to remember the dead) holiday in Japan and I plan to do the
staycation (vacation at home) thing. I plan to spend quality time with my family,
daydream about the future sand of course, sweat.
Sweating is a major pastime of people across Japan this time
of year. No one really likes doing it, but it is a reality we all must face. It’s
hot and humid pretty much everywhere you go. Sadly, for a country that is in theory,
or at least in the minds of non-Japanese people, so high tech, the concept of
central air conditioning is virtually unheard of.
Japanese people are a resilient lot though. They are used to
the heat and just seem to tough it out. As an East Coast Canadian though, I’m not
used to it and after 5 summers here in Japan, have never gotten used to it. I whine
and wince. I complain and get cranky.
I think it’s time to move to the Yukon! Well, at least for
the summer months.
