frozen octopus

ハワイのニックネームはrainbow stateです。それは誇張ではない。毎日オアフに虹を見たと思う。

Took walk to find gymnasium where we are getting the vaccine on Wednesday. The streets and stores were eerily empty. Got home and figured out Japan is playing Mexico in Olympic soccer right now. Don't know if there is any connection but I'm just going to go with that. 139.796548°, 35.796377°

All the sunset photos from MN friends today have a Mars vibe due to all the smoke from the forest fires in the US right now. 139.796491°, 35.796129°

I ordered a new apple watch band that is reflective. On a long walk I was on the other day, it made me realize that I am too invisible to people driving. I'm not going to wear bright green clothes but I am adding reflective bits to things like the eco-bag and my watch. Any little bit helps and reflective stuff does look kinda cool. 139.796435°, 35.796275°

My mother-in-law got her first vaccine shot today. She said it was quick and painless. Having someone you know get a shot makes it seem nearer then before.

They also announced two large vaccine shot centers in Tokyo and Osaka being ready to go. It looks like things are starting to move quicker here.
