2-time world musical saw champion

Just saw this guy on TV tonight accompanied by accoustic guitar, mandolin and ukelele, and when the host of the program interviewed him it came out that he is the 2-time musical saw world champion. I didn't know that when I made a video of him playing at Kyoto Station last year.

Respite from the summer heat

We had days and days of steady rain (well, it is rainy season), even the Gion Matsuri grand parade was held in a steady downpour. Now, the rain has subsided and the heat of summer is upon us.

The good life

For fun, if you have a Japanese person handy, point to the anvil and ask "What do you call this in Japanese?"
