Umi no Hi

Tomorrow is a national holiday in Japan - Umi no Hi, or Sea Day. It is celebrated on the third Monday in July and is roughly around the time that the rainy season ends. The purpose of this holiday to give thanks for the ocean and what comes from it and to think about the importance of the ocean to the island nation.  


I have the day off work tomorrow so maybe I'll talk a walk to the beach. This is what it looks like where I live (winter photo).
