As generally known, Japan is rich in festivities and celebrations. Today, Monday is the so-called the festival of the "Coming of Age", wherein young people especially ladies who turned 20 as of today, go to the temples for prayers. They were clad in native kimono accompanied by their family. May be this is likened to the "Debutant" of western culture, which is specially celebrated too.
On this non-working day here in Japan, again, our children Jonna and Dominic brought us in an island where a park and temple known as "Enoshima Nagisa" is. We toured this area and enjoyed sea foods like broiled squids, rare kinds of shell-fish and the local broiled potato with butter. (JSF Blogs)
