August 2010 Newsletter: Yumi's Monthly Note
Hello Everybody!"Atsui desune" (Very hot, isn't it?), has become a common greeting here in Japan lately. Here in Kyoto, the daily temperature hits over 35 degree (centigrade). My apartment has two air conditioners, but they suddenly broke last Saturday at the beginning of a 3 day holiday. So I couldn't get hold of the managment company until Tuesday, and I tried to bear it. My apartment is located on the top floor of a 5 story building, and it is a corner room. Yes, it sounds nice, except for in the summer. All the heat from the flat roof and walls really boil the unit. On Tuesday, I felt sick with headache and my body temperature was high, the doctor warned me not to sleep or stay in the unit until the air conditioners were fixed, then gave me an IV shot to rehydrate me... So until Friday, I ended up commuting from my Mom's house in Osaka. I hear that not just Japan, but many countries are having an extremely hot summer. I hope everyone is taking good care of their health drinking water and avoiding the heat. I think Bario was a heaven, as the morning and evening temperatures were lower than 20 degree.

I would like to introduce a Pangaea ring writer for this month, Kenkichi Shimooka known as Woophin who is one of the Pangaea volunters. He originally started to engage in Pangaea as an FL at Kyoto and now is actively engaging in the Tokyo activity as a Yoyopan member.
