Hydrangea

Its that time of the year again when the rainy season arrives.Roughly a month or so of hot,humid weather and constant rain.
Its difficult to dry clothes and sleep,fruit like bananas cant be left out as it rots overnight and cockroaches and mosquitoes torment me.
Not my favorite time of the year in terms of climate.
However it does herald the arrival of hydrangeas or "ajisai" in Japanese as well as Japanese lillies.Both species seem to thrive in the muggy and moist conditions.Plus theres also the summer sumo tournament to look forward to next month.
Todays my last day of freedom after nearly a months break from work.Cant say I missed it,nor am I looking forward to going back...
