When I woke up this morning, it seemed like my futon was a little damp. I've read that you need to air them out to dry them and to keep them from getting musty smelling. On nice days, you can also see futon after futon hanging on balconies everywhere, so I did the same with mine.
Except I didn't notice right away when it started raining, so my futon ended up slightly soaked. I had to hang it off a ledge inside the guesthouse, which seems to have done the trick.
Later, Masa and I and one of his friends went out to several bars and talked for a bit. It is still Golden week, so they are mostly dead.
One more day of Golden week.
Cheers
