Red spider lily @ Setagaya Castle ruin: Sept. 6, 2014










We had unusual weather this summer in Japan. Concentrated heavy rain attacked several areas and gave serious damages. More than 70 people were killed in the disaster in late August in Hiroshima city.

Dengue (breakbone) fever news is running around Tokyo right now. Tens of infected patients have been found since last week, and disease-bearing mosquitos have been found in some parks in central Tokyo.

Now, I am a bit hesitant to walk in the park. Instead, I walked along the street in Setagaya ward.

Red Spider lilies were already open in the Setagaya-joshi Park, which is built on the ruin of Setagaya Castle of medieval period. It is only a week later after I enjoyed watching sunflowers in Roka Park in the same area on August 31.

The season is turning from hot and unusual-weather summer to autumn. I hope that we have normal fall season.
