Japan's climate is supposed to have five seasons per year. Although most people don't like to admit it, the whole of June is supposed to be non-stop rain. But where is this so called rainy season? This year, the rain didn't start until about one and a half weeks later then it was supposed to. Also, the really strong rain only lasted for about four or five days. Since then I have been eagerly watching the weather forecast everyday to check for downpours to see if I would finally get to use my umbrella. But nothing yet.

Now I am starting to ask myself, is this the effect of climate change hitting japan very hard or have I just been unluckily spared all of the heavy rain up until now? Only time will tell.
