Soon in Tokyo, we will enter summer season, starting with a rainy month of June (and a bit of July) followed by sunny months of July and August, as well as really high temperatures and a great level of humidity! But Japanese summer also means festival season with people wearing yukata (a light kimono). It is usually such a great sight, seeing men and women strolling about the festival food stalls, wearing yukata and carrying fans. Very picturesque!
But we are not quite there yet! However, the other day, at a flower festival, I saw a woman wearing the cutest yukata ever and it made me think of summer season.
