after the storm

Once again, the air is at its clearest following a typhoon. There is some lingering low cloud that prevents me from seeing Fuji this morning, but I can see the city well, right out to the mountain ranges in the west. One thing I've noticed is that the city is dotted with stacks that seem to be from incinerators. I can only assume that these are from hospitals. From my vantage point at this desk, I can see seven. And that's just one 30-degree vista from the western end of the city - this place really is incredibly vast.
