    こんいちは、Sherloki!

    Did you learn traditional Chinese characters or the simplified characters? Japanese kanji often match the traditional Chinese characters in meaning (and occasionally one of the readings as well), so knowing a tiny bit of Chinese may be confusing or it may be helpful. In any case, the two languages quickly diverge so I think after a while it won’t matter (for better or for worse).

    How hot is it in Japan in August? I’m looking at weather records online and the average temperature seems to be 29 Celsius, which is about as hot as Ohio in August. I’ve never really considered that blazing hot :o

    Hello Eihiko!
    Sorry for the late reply. I learnt the simplified Chinese characters. The simpler words still have same meaning, and when I do not know how to read the words in Japanese, I would still know the meaning. But, I am getting slightly confused on separating the reading. Hopefully the more I learn and practice, the easier it gets.

    Oh my, I thought it would be at least 30′C. I have never spent a summer in Ohio, but I did spend several days in Texas. It was 41′C. Nobody wanted to get out of the car. The thing about the weather in Japan is the humidity level. Not sure if it would be better or worse, I just hope I survive ^_^’

    Joel: Thank you for the tips Joel! Climbing Mount Fuji sounds like a great idea, but I highly doubt I would haha..

    Nukedboom: Hello there New Zealand! I mean the real Middle Earth.. Nice to meet you too Nukedboom.

    Hello Joel! No, we are in Middle Earth, not New Zealand XD

    Thank you! I might only be in Tokyo. And yes, it will be blazing HOT >< we did not know how hot it would be when we booked the ticket.
    Any tips to tackle the stinking heat?

    I have never blog about my trips, by the end of the day I would be too tired to do anything. I would try and do something for this one. =]
