Today is the summer solstice, one of the 24 solar terms.

As you know, the daytime is the longest in a year.

The time of sunrize will be later and the sunset earlier from now on, but the temperature will continuew to rise steadly.

It's going to be hot and humid days.

It is cloudy and sometimes it rains today.

 

I'll change the subject.

My neighbor brought me these vegetables and fruit.

They are a sunny lettuse, five cucumbers and many loquats.

All of them look delicious.
