We've had a few cooler days last week and it was really great my plants seem to have enjoyed a nice break from the extreme sun too. I secretly wished that the summer will just end like that but it doesn't work that way we still have to put up with the awful summer in Tokyo for a bit longer before autumn arrives. I really can't wait till when summer finally ends.

  3. my favorite season is autumn so i'm secretly wishing for summer to be over too.
    summer's are fine as long as it's a dry-heat, none of this wet muggy stuff.

    have to start hitting the beer-gardens soon though!

  5. Summer is my least favorite time of year, especially with the excessive heat wave we've been having here in New York for more than a week now... I LOVE Autumn and am counting the days until it is here!

  6. You sound just like me! "When is summer gonna end?" I feel bad, too, because here in the Pacific Northwest, we've been spared the awful heat wave that has struck the rest of the U.S. Nevertheless, I am eagerly anticipating the coming autumn!

    Your garden is lovely, by the way! :)
