Mei-Shun found many 提灯 lamps at the nearest station; hung along pedestrian lane, or held like a wide ladder. Such a night view reminds her of 祇園祭, when festival enthusiasm covers whole of our ancient capital. On the other paw of fluffy Mikan-chan, we might miss the 2nd most exquisite 十三夜 expected tomorrow. Rare, serial storms followed by 2 typhoons are forecast.
Gray, Green,
StandardIt rains hard from early morning. Mademoiselle Vert opened all her 19 flowers, enjoying shower outdoors. Mei-Shun brought her indoors when it stopped shedding tears around noon. Now she is ready to practice moonlight scores: it really is 梅雨 this year, who often prevents our seeing that celestial beauty or feeling the longest daytime on 夏至. Would you also continue until the end of solar July?
Morning Mountain: 2
StandardThanks a lot, mobile phone. Mei-Shun often checks news up on it, regarding Shin’s flight or her favorite sumo wrestler. It said the latter, who got injured during previous basho, recovered little by little. She had been wondering how his condition was – Lisfranc ligament is not suitable for surgery. He resumed すり足 and ぶつかり training, headed his stable camp in Shizuoka.
Favorite Fruit
StandardWelcome back home, dad. I and mom finally saw him quite late last night, on a day of month for my breed, purr. He brought nice souvenirs as usual, yet with a bag of caramel-cheese flavored popcorn exploded within his suitcase. That forced her into severe cleaning labor, while gave a reason why above photo features cute cherries from her elder sister Y.

Missing Moon
StandardThanks a million, Professor M. How did he catch the 4th crescent of lunar May last night? Rainy season means Mei-Shun has rare chances to see this celestial beauty. Her going out planned at least twice a week was finally over, expecting vacation-like summer henceforth. 晴耕雨読 would turn into 晴読雨舞, study foreign languages on torrid days, dance in wet weather.
Train Tour
Standard… Mei-Shun enjoyed, under gray sky where ample raindrops fall from. She heard such cool June was experienced 2 decades before. Tokyo area saw heavier shower that forced her to use a taxi toward her parents’ home. “Hi dear”, mother greeted her younger daughter. “Green tea, my handmade yogurt and ohagi is ready for you.” Beloved father, shall we share your favorite sweets?
Fluffy Forehead
StandardShin is on board for the U.S.A. again. He left home before 6:00, drove Ms. Moon toward Haneda Airport. Train might delay caused by a slight earthquake last night, let Mei-Shun make good use of 先勝=sen-sho, a day the better if start working earlier. On the other paw of Mikan-chan, Wednesday means she must practice “La Chevaleresque” composed by Master Burgmüller, missing horsey riding.
Big Breakfast
StandardMei-Shun visited the same hospital, reservation time as last week. Since the sushi restaurant is closed on Tuesdays, she ate much in the morning. However, more patients were waiting for their turn – there were many elder people. When her screening finished, it already passed 15:15. She was so starved that jumped into Ms. Scarlet, headed a supermarket where tasty dishes are available.
Colour Control
StandardLunar May started today. It brought 大安=tai-an as well, the best among 六曜. Mom feels happy; it was one of her favorite months when younger, while 仏滅=butsu-metsu, the worst removed from solar calendars. By the way, she has learned that photos of Mademoiselle Vert do not need shade change: her mobile phone carries a good camera. 3 flowers followed on weekend, purr.

Purr Pursuit
StandardI’m on Mademoiselle Vert’s 8 flowers, making a pair of wings right now. I and mom would like to show you kind 528 followers such an image, yet she is not so much a good photographer. We hope above shot works as a fluffy substitute. Sudden shower last night gave a bright morning. It made her use a parasol, who walked 5 minutes toward a hair salon in high heels.
