Rainy Season

June and July are the months of rainy season (tsuyu) here in Japan. Sometimes the rain actually starts in May and doesn't let up until August! This year, however, someone must have done a sundance for us, because it hasn't rained that much, and it has only rained: a) on Sunday afternoons after we had packed up our camping/biking gear, and b) on weekdays, when being in an office renders the weather irrelevant anyway.

Our luck is holding - it rained nearly every day this week, but began clearing today, and with the promise of a hot and sunny weekend. We've already packed up the Pajero in anticipation of an early start tomorrow - we want to get in as much downhilling time as we possibly can!
