I foolishly thought I could avoid the heat in July by waking up early and taking a walk. I suppose it was a bit cooler before 7 a.m. than it was at 1 p.m., but the heat and humidity were still crazy. I decided to investigate the Waseda University campus with no one there (for a change) but myself and a few security guards. I was greeted at the gate by an “おはようございます先生,” something I will miss in the states.

I took today’s picture of Shinjuku from Building 11 before the sun got high enough overhead to wash everything out.
