After it raining on and off for the past couple of days, I only found one spiderella by the side of the road on my journey to and from today.  Poor, poor spiderella…..

It poured and poured cold rain yesterday.  I shivered walking around Ginza yesterday.  The weather was so bad, and I was bogged down with bags, I couldn’t reach for the camera.  So it was a blessing to be out in the sun today.  Even though as I type this note it is only 4:12 p.m. and the sun is going.  Sigh.  However, to be out in the neighborhood with a light jacket lifted my mood.  The walls were bathed in gorgeous winter light.
