Guess who got off work early today!!!
This morning was sunny but apparently an active low pressure system and front is moving in with strong crazy winds and many companies released their employees early today since the trains and subways could be delayed or halted for a period of time.
So here I am back at home in the middle of the afternoon. Good thing since my brain was starting to hurt a little with all the new information I've been accumulating since yesterday. I think I'll relax and enjoy the sound of rain and wind outside.
Looks like these little birdies are enjoying the shower, too!
I love these photos! Perfect! ^^
ReplyDeleteWe could also go home early. Now I'm praying that the blossoms will survive the storm. Mother Nature, this is Bad Timing! (>_<)
Once I got home I was hoping the winds would die down so they don't blow all the blossoms away! Glad you were home safe though :D
DeleteWhat luscious raindrops! Wonderful shots.
ReplyDeleteThank you! They looked like they were posing just for me ;)
DeleteThese are so cute! And I love them in black and white, especially with the raindrops. Wonderful shots!
ReplyDeleteThank you! It was so dreary outside that I decided to take everything in black and white :)
Deletei love these cute birds ;) Rain is absolutely needed here ;)
ReplyDeleteOur rainy season is just beginning...would love to send you some of our rain! ;)
DeleteThank you, Francisca ;D
ReplyDeleteVery cute - good luck with your storm. I saw some photos of trucks blown over by it on the BBC news site! We've got a major snowstorm today, but we need the moisture as March was completely dry, so we're not complaining.
ReplyDeleteTo answer your question, the trail with the views tops out around 11,000 feet elevation (3,352m). The valleys below are around 9,000 feet elevation (2,743m).
Wow, no wonder the trees looked so small! We're just starting our rainy season here so many more rainy photos to come ;)
DeleteJapan's equivalent of a snow day?
ReplyDeleteYup! Our pre-typhoon season started out with the bang ;D
DeleteThey didn’t have to go to the birdbath—the birdbath came to them.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like you really piqued their interest, but I don’t see how they could mistake your camera for a package of birdseed. Maybe they just like you.
I like what looks like a bamboo fence in the background—surrounding that rarest of things in Tokyo—open space.
The bamboo fence is actually surrounding a bush! :D
ReplyDeleteThis is so sweet!
ReplyDeleteI thought they were pretty cute, too :D
DeleteThere's nothing nicer than to be cosy and warm inside listening to the wind and rain outside, enjoy Kaori..I'm looking forward to it.
