July 7 is known as tanabata (七夕), Star Festival, when once a year Vega and Altair meet across the Milky Way.
We decorate colorful strips written wishes on the bamboo tree.
Today is shosho (小暑) one of nijushisekki (二十四節気), the 24 solar terms. Last one was geshi (夏至) on June 21 and the next one is taisho (大暑) on July 23.
Today I took an hour off to attend a meeting in Gotanda. After that five of us had dinner together.
I am so glad to get a peach from my friend who went to Yamanashi bus tour today.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
