Day 343- more rain

 
21 February 2011- Not the most well composed picture ever, I know. This is Greg sweeping the floodwaters out. The back door of our house is flush witht he ground, and no sill. There is a concrete ramp sloping DOWN to the tiny concrete patio, one very small pie that backs up and a leaky gutter. Result- the laundry (but only the laundry) floods when we have heavy rain. MOst of the time we have precautions (rolled up towels) to prevent it, but the severity of this storm was not anticipated.

28 October 2010- A visit to Asakasa early on our last day, which is the only day during the trip where it rained seriously.

Day 208 - At the Laundromat

 
9 October 2010 - We do own a washer, but not a dryer, bu 3 straight weekends of rain have been a little diffuclt in terms of drying the laundry, and with an impending trip we paid a visit to the laundromat to ensure dryness. We weren't the only ones
