Snowed in Tokyo Area It snowed in Tokyo area today. Snow turned into rain already by now. It was first snow in Tokyo area this year. Since we have only a few snowy days in a year in Tokyo area, my kids were all excited to see the first snow in a while, whereas I've been lazily sitting around all day. When it's very cold, I feel like my body functions go dormant and become sluggish. Maybe I was a frog or bear or anything that hibernates in winter in my previous life. I hate winter.
