Umi-no-hi, Marine Day

I was born and brought up in a mountain village
in Niigata Pref.

I had never seen the sea before I was a fifth grader.

When I was an elementary school girl,
I was always singing a song ‘Umi’.

海は広いな大きいな 月がのぼるし 日が沈む

My house in Niigata City is located near the Sea of Japan.
At night I could enjoy the sound of the sea in 1980s.

Oh, many happy memories come back to me!



This is the picture I took in summer 6 years ago
when I went back to Niigata.

It's only 10 minutes' walk to this beach from my house.
