Beautiful warm night in LA

I just went on a 散歩 with my husband. I love summer. I love summer time anywhere but especially in Japan and LA.

In LA it's light out till about 8:30pm during the summer! How fantastic is that?! You get to do so much more. 

However I do miss the おぼん祭り and other summertime festivals that Japanese people throw. And my goodness, do they know how to party. I remember the 花火 in 三田, 芦屋, 三木, all places I grew up. The fireworks were phenomenal. I do miss that spectacular sight. 

As for tonight though, this is the beautiful dusk of LA and palm trees....
