'Watermelon Day' is celebrated on July 27th and, this being Japan, we have a play on words to thank for this date.
The pattern on a watermelon's skin is likened to a rope... 'natsu-no-tsuna' (夏の綱 = な (7) つのつ (2) な (7)) = 'summer rope'😲🍉🫤

Turns out that it's very handy knowing an iaido master around this time of year😋... #スイカの日 #watermelonday #スイカ #watermelon #Japan #Kyoto #京都 #居合道 #Iaido Cultivated for at least 5000 years (they are depicted in Egyptian hieroglyphics), watermelons are 92% water!🍉
