Flowers in the springtime (Japan)

 

Getting cooler in Fukuoka, flowers blooming

After all the floods, landslides and heatwave, Southern Japan is now experiencing a much cooler summer. Today's highest temperature is 30c . This is the type of summer I am looking forward to.

With some rainfall last few days, the flowers are blooming again. These flowers are not human cultivated, I think. They are growing along the roadside.

A visit to a nursery in Fukuoka, Japan

Visiting a nursery is an exhilarating experience for me. There are flowers and fruit/vegetable seedlings of all sorts like melon, cherries, cucumber etc.
Today is a comfortable warm day for me with top temperature of 25c. I dread the cold and wet weather especially the last winter.
We went to a nearby park and walked for 2.4km. It is a necessary exercise for me without which I would feel lethargic and restless.
