It seems that the monsoon season is finally over!
Tonight there was a huge barbeque that everyone attended. It was great to spend time with everyone! We even did nagashi-soumen! (Where you put soumen noodles into flowing water and people eat it as it gets to them.)
I ended up singing karaoke and as a reward I was given some amazing mushrooms! Thank you!!
To finish off we had mini-fireworks, luckily it stays warm at night time in Japan in summer.

梅雨が明けたらしいですね！
今晩、みんなで大きなバーベキューやりました！みんなと楽しい時間を過ごせてうれしかったです！流しそうめんもしました！楽しかった！！
結局私がカラオケをすることになちゃって、ご褒美で素晴らしい松茸をもらいました！本当にありがとうございます！
最後にちっちゃい花火をやりました。夏でも日本の夜は暑いなんていいですね！
