My Actifit Report Card: July 8 2024

(ENG)
Even though the rainy season has not yet ended, the temperature in Kyoto, where I live, rose to 37 degrees Celsius the day before yesterday and yesterday. It is supposed to be extremely hot again today.
I don't want to go outside when it is this hot, but I have managed to continue walking because I was told to continue walking as part of my diabetes treatment plan. However, if I walk in the daytime, I may suffer heat stroke, so I walk early in the morning, around 6:00 a.m. The early morning is a little cooler because there is a breeze.

Early in the morning, there is a breeze and it is a little cooler. Even though it is cool, the temperature is still about 27°C, so this is about the limit of the temperature at which I can be active. By the way, last night it was about 30 degrees Celsius even at midnight, so I don't walk at night.

Early morning is quiet, but there are people walking or walking their dogs. Recently, I have been taking the same course all the time. I took a picture of lilies blooming in front of the eaves of a townhouse, which is typical of Kyoto. In front of the apartment building, there was a bamboo branch decoration left over from yesterday's Tanabata (the seventh day of the seventh month of the lunar calendar). It seems that the residents of this condominium decorated it. It is said that the residents of condominiums nowadays are not well connected, but it is nice that they are connected through the Tanabata decorations.

I went shopping at a convenience store on my way home.

The house I live in now has little greenery, too much sun, no balcony on the second floor, and the air conditioner that comes with the house is old, made in 2010, so the house is cool, but not cool enough to cool down to a crisp. I slept well last night, but there are nights when it is hard to sleep. I want to be careful not to get heat stroke.

まだ梅雨も明けていないというのに、私の住む京都は一昨日、昨日と37℃まで気温が上がりました。今日も猛暑になるということです。
こう暑いと外に出たくなくなりますが、糖尿病の療養計画でウォーキングを続けるようにと言われたので、なんとか続けています。といっても昼に歩くと熱中症になる恐れがあるので、早朝、6時前後に歩いています。

早朝だと風もあって少し涼しいです。涼しいといっても27℃くらいあるので、これくらいの温度が活動をするぎりぎりの温度ですね。ちなみに昨夜は深夜0時でも30℃くらいあったそうなので、夜はウォーキングしません。

早朝は静かですが、ウォーキングしたり犬の散歩をしたりしている人がいます。最近は同じコースばかり通っています。京都らしい町家の軒先にユリの花が咲いていたので写真を撮りました。マンションの前には昨日七夕だったので笹飾りが残っていました。このマンションの住人が飾ったようで、今のマンションは住人の繋がりが薄いと言われますが、七夕飾りでつながっているのはいいですね。

帰りにコンビニで買い物をして帰宅しました。

今住んでいる家は緑が少ないし、日当たりも良すぎるし、2Fにベランダはないし、ついているエアコンは2010年製と古いので、家は涼しいのですがキンキンに冷える涼しさではありません。昨晩はよく寝られましたが寝苦しい夜もあります。熱中症にならないように気を付けたいと思います。
