In most region of Japan, we have a month (mid June to mid July) of rainy season, pronounced as Tsuyu or ToYou in Japanese. This is bit depressing weather, but should be important to keep normal climate and plant growth in Japan. This weekend has been cloudy with occasional rain, looking as a sign of rainy season. I hope the season this year is calm without any flood damage.
A few things good for this season are 1) my birthday is coming (June 8) and 2) one of my of favorite flowers, hydrangea, will bloom. In the Hakozaki Shrine near my house, a beautiful hydrangea garden is now opened for visitors with a small entrance fee, 300 JPY (~$3).
