Hi everybody, I came to Akihabara as we Japanese are on the first day of the summer vacation "Obon".
I didn't expect there would be many people as Tokyoites go back to their home towns during Obon. It was mildly hot, about 30 degrees Celsius.
The number of foreign tourists has been on the increase, about which I'm happy, but our government has to come up with measures to make the number larger such as hiring much more bilingual guides.
