Typhoon again and bears

Somehow, so many typhoons hit this island this year. I live in Japan more than 10 years but never met this much in one year. Because of typhoons, almost 5days a week are rain, almost every weekend has been rainy. It is not bad listening rain drops sometime but obviously it is too much. Many people are depressed. (of course I am one of them)

And somehow, many bears are coming down to town this year. Especially lately, I hear about bear showing up news every other day. Bears are depressed too? or simply running out foods?

This bear was captured while napping at someone’s house….

    I thought I was seeing a lot about bears in my Japan news feed! I guess it wasn’t my imagination. How strange …

    Stay dry!

    Claris,
    No, Cralis, it’s not imagination. It is real. Bears come down to town to get food because rains ruined their food. Actually, vegees are way expensive lately in Japan due to rain. (Can you believe 400JPY cabbage?!)

    Mother Nature is toying with us.

    Hottest summer.
    Typhoons.
    Earthquakes.
    Bears.
    Volcanos.

    The only manmade event, was the Jumbo Jet buzzing Tokyo Tower. Wish I had seen that.
