Daily HDR Photo — Blue-roofed Japanese House
Today’s photo is the upper half of a Japanese House built in a somewhat traditional style. I like the roof. You don’t see blue roof tiles much in the States.
You can also see some other features common to Japanese houses. A gate enclosing the yard, a closely trimmed pine tree, and the front door. Nice looking, eh?
Uniform Switch
Today is June 1st, which means time to change uniforms! Schools and many businesses make students and employees wear uniforms. June 1st marks the date when everyone is allowed to change from the winter uniform to the summer uniform. Yes, these things are regulated. Just so you know, October 1st is where they change back.
I cover this a little in my post on school uniforms.
Summer uniforms are often the same or very similar, just made with lighter material. Men stuck in business suits also often are allowed to lose the suit jacket and tie and switch to short-sleeve shirts. Sweet!

I don’t see many roofs in Japan with that color but that is probably my favorite color roof in Japan. Excellent photo.
Yeah, I agree. I dunno why more Japanese don’t pick the blue tiles.. They are the best!
