Well, the little fella who sells bucket and spade sets for the kids has come out of hibernation. The classes are noticably smaller and you've got a hint of that 'end of year' lethargy.

So, what are your plans for the summer?

Personally I'll be doing summer courses until the end of July and then I'll be off for the whole of August to recharge the batteries. Can't wait.

No summer school for me! To be honest, one of the main reasons I did my MA degree was to get summer vacations.

My girlfriend and I are planning to spend the summer in Qinghai, a mountainous region of China with a strong Tibetan Buddhism influence. Should be fun!

I'm doing summer courses until the 15th of july then my husband and I will be on holiday for 3 weeks in August to do some works in our house in the country ( we started 5 years ago and need at least 3 years to complete it!!) we did every thing from concrete floors and partitions to electricity, plumbering ect...)
But we will also spend some time relaxing on the beach at the end of a hard day working in the house!! ( without internet for 3 weeks !!!)

Will go to Canada and spend most of my time in outdoor bars

I'll be working the same as usual. Some classes will be cancelled in the beginning of August, but other than that there will be no change.

Summer? What summer?

Japan goes to school more than any other country. Nagano goes to school more than any place in Japan.

Summer? What summer?

I'll echo Mark's comments: Summer? I don't even know the definition of the word! I live in a country where people actually die from working too much!!
