13 May 2009

We were subjected to incredible, and unseasonal, heat and humidity. Looking out over the cityscape it resembled Beijing, though thankfully it was only water vapour rather than pollution. It served as a reminder of the awful conditions in the months ahead, though at only about 28C it was a long way short of the high summer temperatures we can expect.


Despite the weather, we had an outdoors playdate with Julia and Charlize in the morning. I had never been to the playground in the heart of Azabu Juban and wished I had as it is only 10 minutes walk from our apartment and is well equipped with swings, slides and a sandpit. Some of it is quite advanced for Emily but that didn't stop her following the big kids and nearly getting into a few scrapes.


In the afternoon we went back to Azabu as I'd arranged to show Jill the Appy jidokan. Emily was worn out after two energetic playdates, and slept very heavily that night, waking at 8am next day: the latest lie-in I've had in ages.
