Cole and I wanted to learn more about Japans climate so we asked a Climatologist she said that the best time of year that you want to be here in Japan is Spring,
Spring is probably the best time of year to be in Japan. The temperatures are warm but not hot, there's not too much rain, and March-April brings the justly famous cherry blossoms and is a time of revelry and festivals.
And Summer starts with a dreary rainy season in June and turns into a steam bath in July-August, with extreme humidity and the temperature heading as high as 40°C.
Autumn starting in September, is a close second to spring. Temperatures become more tolerable, fair days are common and fall colors are almost impressive as the cherry blossoms in spring.
Winter is a good time to go skiing or hot-spring hopping, but as the Japanese have yet to figure out the wonders of central heating, it's often miserably cold indoors.
Cole and I got invited to dinner from our friend at the train station, when we got there she gave us a tour of her house. She said that it was a Traditional Japanese home it is made of wood and supported by wood pillars. But more and more families in urban areas are living in big apartment buildings, she also said that there is two big differences with western homes are that shoes are not worn inside the house and that at least one room tends to be designed in the Japanese style with a tatami floor. When the dinner was ready we sat down and ate chicken teriyaki it was really good we said goodbye and thanked our friend from the train station.
