A long time ago in a galaxy, far, far away............ ?

I went to hike the mountain called Takao-san with my friends the other day, it is one of few beautiful country sides of Tokyo that I like to visit.  I think Mt.Takao is good place to feel healing power of nature and release my stress from work.

We were so lucky to have nice weather because the rainy season is around the corner here in Japan. and in the middle of mountain, guess who we met ?

we accidentally ran into the imperial storm troopers and a tusken raider from Starwars. It was so weird to see the people stopping their walk and getting speechless when they were marching and passing by us. It was such a great experience having a lunch with my favorite movie characters at the top of Mt.Takao.

If you got a chance to visit there, don't forget to bite a delicious Japanese soba around that area !!!

A few days ago it started to rain so I decided to take out my camera to take some pictures. Then it started to rain really hard. This was one of the few times I've seen it rain this much.


It rained so much that the street looked like a river. My neighbor said that his basement got flooded. We didn't get really get that much water luckily.It rained so much you could see the water raised up over the curb. I thought about going out there in my swimsuit but decided it would better if I didn't. At least I don't have to water the grass for a while
