Its is getting tough with this heat.
Ive been to Aokiko in Hakuba camping on and off for the past twenty years but even up there it's pretty hard going during the day time.
Used to manage a week or more. Now after a couple of days you're exhausted.
In my country everyone looks forward to summer, long holidays ,late evenings.
Her and I'm not blaming Japan but no one looks forward to it.Its infernal
And the point about kids homework and clubs is so valid.
Once they start JHS your summer is gone.
Luckily my youngest started university so I'm out of that mess thank god
