    Yeah look at all the smiles. You know you've been in Japan too long when use the word enjoy every second caption.

    Yeah yeah, the air gets cooler and you don't sweat as much, but it signals the coming of the dreaded winter when it gets so cold you can't go outside without a coat, and this white glop drops out of the sky and covers the ground, making it extremely dangerous to drive or even walk outside... otherwise, yeah Autumn is nice.

    Looks like it's already autumn, which can't come soon enough for me. I'd be perfectly happy to skip summer every year in Japan and go straight to October. When I become a zillionaire, I'm going to spend every May-September in the southern hemisphere.

    Chibaman; English, please. Sarge; so cold?! Japan has incredibly mild winters; speaking as a Canadian, I will take a Kanto winter every time...

    All the leaves are brown, and the sky is grey. I've been for a walk, on such a summer's day. Shinjuku Gyoen dreamin' on such a summer's day.

    Looks like they are thinking or talking ...it's not a picture of what we normally see in magazines.

    Lad in white shirt to girl in red kimono: 'but why didn't you tell me you would be wearing a kimono today ?'

    Girl in red kimono: 'but you know we always wear our kimonos to Shinjuku Gyoen. And does it really matter ?'

    Lad in white shirt: 'yes. I mean, I feel such a fool dressed in only a white shirt and sneakers and look at you all dressed up today'.

    Great photo of Japan: The ONLY country in the world that has four seasons!

    yes, four seasons. hot, rainy, hot and humid and, finally, cold and windy.

    The lady in the red kimono and the guy in the white shirt look like they're having a discussion of this sort:

    She: It's not you. It's me. He: ..... She: We can still be friends. He: .... She: Well, I have to go... He: ...
