Golden Week

I had a really nice and relaxing Golden Week. I hung out with some friends and ate Mexican food. It was very good. I also went to a beach a bit south of Tokyo. The weather was really sunny and the train ride wasn’t too long. Now that winter is over, I really wanted to feel the sun again and be outside. I found it interesting that the sun didn’t feel very strong even though there weren’t any clouds in the sky. I am used to beaches where the sand is so hot that you have to run if you’re not wearing any shoes and the sun is so strong that you should apply sunscreen many times throughout the day if you don’t want to get burned. Nonetheless, it was nice to be outside in warm and sunny weather and I hope to go more often.
