The only way to be outside in Japan during the summer is to be by the water. If you can't do that I'd recommend staying inside in the air conditioning.
We were able to go to the beach and even the pool a couple times this year.
I also wanted to share some random pictures from our summer. These next two finds were from the local thrift shop. The kids always think these books about the peach boy are hilarious. He is popular character here in Japan and it is totally normal to see pictures of him or his friends on food products as well.
I also found this gymnastics bar and just got it. The kids have spent a significant amount of time spinning around it. Because it is so hot outside I feel like we need some things to do in our house and I'm always trying to avoid electronics so this worked pretty well.
Since we had the bar all we really needed was a slide to complete our indoor play ground. We already had a small toddler slide but now we have a full size slide. It is actually pretty fast. The kids love going down it and sending things down it as well.
I don't think anyone in our house is looking forward to going back to school, but the time has come. First days are next week for everyone except Calista, who wills start the following week.
