Cold winter

February is almost over and I can't wait for spring and it's warm air to come. This winter has been pretty cold. I have seen my electric bill sky rocket the past two months because of the heavy use of my AC units acting as heaters. It has not snowed that much , probably like less than 5cm so far this winter but the cold air is killer. The worst part is during basketball practice. I play at a school gym and even though it is technically an indoor court, the temperature is exactly the same inside as it is outside. So far I have probably gotten sick like 3 times coming home after practice this winter. It is pretty ridiculous. I miss the heated courts in the states. I miss driving from place to place and only experiencing the brutal cold air when going to your car. Winter is not all bad though. I love winter food in Japan. Clementines, strawberries and crabs are all in season now and they are delicious!! Here is a pic of one of those yummy strawberries:
