Day 138 2016: The wind and the rain..

Day 148: ...make for an unpleasant commute

The rainy season is approaching here in Tokyo and so I guess the weather gods just like to help us get a little prepared in advance. For all the convenience of a reasonably reliable public transport system, it is the walking between base and stations in the rain that really is a bit of a downside to the whole exercise.

And so it was today. Rain and, given where I work...wind. Lots of it in full strength coming up from the bay. Makes you realise umbrellas were not invented with these conditions in mind...

This is going to be a wet day...
Wind, rain and tombo...my umbrella barely coping


Sort of wattly, sort of


Nevertheless, we made it to the end of the day.
