I don't mind the heat, but I am sick and tired of the humidity.
In summer, it is very humid here in Japan.
We do need refreshing coolness.
There is one thing that could give the coolness to us.
That is FUURIN (wind-bells).
In the grounds of Ikegami Honmonji Temple, there were 500 FUURIN (wind-bells).
It was like a 'sound garden.' When wind blows, the fuurin makes a cool sound.
When the wind force and the wind direction change ... sometime it makes a joyful sound and at another time makes a plaintive sound.

It looked like husband and wife cuddled up looking at the
Tokyo's sky at twilight.
One the way home I unconsciously sang to myself,
Bob Dylan's "Blowin' in the Wind"
............The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind .............



A lot of hairpieces were sold beside Tokyu Ikegami Station ......
