this and that

Tokyo people....this couple was dressed up!
Caught these two waiting for their turn at the vet...it was so blazing! that day.
Cute origami found in the vending machine windows...


Banana called Caribbean Queen apparently a grand nain variety from Costa Rica.

Highlight for Satoshi this week was not having to go to work and to be able to watch the Home Run Derby and MLB All Star Game.

Warning: if you are snoring (loudly) and Kat cannot nap, this may happen....

It's nectarine season, I thought I had wrote about finding this last year, but didn't.

The nectarines we have in Tokyo are grown in Nagano prefecture.

I'm glad I found them again this year.

And so, on Wednesday, Tokyo's cases hit 1149 and 1308 on Thursday...pretty much what science said would happen.

By the time the Olympics rolls around in a week!, we (Tokyo) should be near 2500?! or higher.

The "bubble" that the Olympics said it would have with media, athletes and staff has holes in it, as they are finding foreigners walking around Tokyo as well as other discrepancies ....sigh

Oh and the IOC have “special rules”…only needing to “quarantine” for 3 days AND can travel outside the bubble to Hiroshîma and Nagasaki while the Japanese need to “stay at home”…grr

And as if there is not enough drama, with the temperature of the Pacific ocean so warm, it may make a typhoon sometime soon…eep

Have a safe weekend.

Good lord that video!!! ;o) Love the vending machines in Japan, Kat! What I don't love is that the Olympics are moving forward.
