well that is what it felt like this morning on the way to playgroup coz they have the seats heated on the train- its not THAT cold yet!! and I am from Brisbane (I never even owned a coat or scarf until I came to Japan) so i feel the cold (though I have gotten more resiliant - my first year working here, I used to wear 5, yes 5 layers of clothes to walk the 5mins to work - one layer for each minute!?) actually today is a lovely day- I am only in a jumper and that is enough. Of course all the people around me are in parkas and long coats - why do japanese people dress for the season as opposed to dressing for the actual weather?
only a week and a day until we head off for our summer paradise, yay! can't wait!

I totally do not understand Japan`s reasoning about turning on the heat, and leaving it on, as soon as it reaches a certain date! Silly really!
ReplyDeleteAs is dressing in a coat in October when it is still 30 degrees out.
Msg me about coming home would love to meet you while you are here- especially since you are just a couple of streets away!
you put that so well!! "why do they dress for the season and not the actual weather?"
ReplyDeletei am always dumbfounded. i think this will be a forever unanswered question.
