I don't feel the humidity from those words, though. Do you hear the onomatopoeia in the word "slosh"? (which reminds me of going through puddles). @Leenie, thanks for the tip about the pools, I know in Iceland you can bathe in the hot volcanic springs. But wouldn't it be nice to bathe in a rainbow pool??? like a fairytale.Jenny Woolfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16881781466502273314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7937298116504825290.post-63463587385056418672011-07-22T09:11:31.819+01:002011-07-22T09:11:31.819+01:00This comment has been removed by the author.Jenny Woolfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16881781466502273314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7937298116504825290.post-48908661735915135962011-07-22T05:16:57.187+01:002011-07-22T05:16:57.187+01:00Jenny Woolf,
The worst part of Japanese scorching ...Jenny Woolf,<br />The worst part of Japanese scorching summer is humidity. The situation will drastically change, almost paradise or hell; it depends on that it is dry or humid even in the same high temperature.<br />We have so many onomatopoeias in Japanese language to express this extreme humidity such as "Jike Jike","Jime Jime" "Jito Jito" and more. Do you feel notorious humidity in Japan from them?snowwhitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04224433823476591538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7937298116504825290.post-589736683178740752011-07-22T04:53:35.146+01:002011-07-22T04:53:35.146+01:00Thanks for stopping by my blog.

Although most of the US is baking under a high pressure heat wave, our part of the states is just right...for once. <br /><br />By the way. You most certainly would not want to bathe in the hot pools at Yellowstone Park. One, because it is expressly forbidden and Two, the water is boiling hot. People who get in that water die.Leeniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17655189620056032790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7937298116504825290.post-61560914895706305222011-07-22T02:22:33.817+01:002011-07-22T02:22:33.817+01:00Too funny.

Japan's summer is notoriously hot and humid even when it's sunny. High humidity slows down evaporation, the natural way of cooling.

An iconic post, we think although, sadly, the weather which you have captured seems also to be an 'iconic' English summer. We have to say that spending more of our time in Budapest rather than Brighton does give us the opportunity for plenty of sun in the summer and plenty of snow in the winter, both of which tend to be missing in the UK.<br /><br />Thank you for the kind comments which you left on our blog, which we were delighted to receive. Ever since, we have been trying to track you down. Now we have found you we have signed up as followers to keep track!Jane and Lance Hattatthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16831890261259302647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7937298116504825290.post-60669163598009245342011-07-21T10:17:41.575+01:002011-07-21T10:17:41.575+01:00Hi there - great opening lines.
