After months and months of stifling heat, the winds have eventually changed and the temperature has dropped dramatically. Japan feels like a totally different country. I’m beginning to get nostalgic flashbacks of the month I moved here for no other reason but the fact that the weather is reminiscent of that time. The last two days, we’ve had fantastic weather; just the perfect temperature and glorious sunshine. I managed to get out and go on a long bike ride and a long run and it really has been the perfect conditions for both. Mount Fuji has also just poked its head out above the skyline of Yokohama, again. It's such a beautiful view, looking out over the bay on a clear day.
I've been doing a fair bit of recording on my guitar recently. There's been a couple of rainy days off work and so I’ve ceased the moment to do something a little constructive. It can be a little frustrating record with so little equipment but I’m slowly learning to maximise the potential of the software on my laptop.
I entered myself for the JLPT level 5 exam, the other day, which ill be taking in December. It’s giving me a good motivation to study harder and should hopefully mean that I come away from Japan with some sort of qualification.
In other news my sister was proposed to on a weekend in Cumbria, this weekend and is now engaged to Mr John Ashforth. So a big congratulations to them.
