Shinkansen umbrella

This should be a big hit with the kids, or any shinkansen enthusiast. ^^. Especially since we are in the rainy season, 梅雨 (tsuyu), now. I like big umbrellas. Those that provide cover for me and probably 2 others. Are you particular about your umbrella or you just use something that gets the job done?

    In Vancouver, most people use black or single color umbrellas. There are fancy umbrella stores selling fancy umbrellas but I guess most people don’t really care. I usually wear my water repellent jacket with a hood instead of using an umbrella because I have a tendency of loosing them ^^;
