National Holiday, Taiiku-no Hi

It is the second Monday of October.

It is a national holiday called “Health and Sports Day.”

Did you enjoy your holiday?

I did.

Two of my good old friends came to Tokyo yesterday
to attend a certain meeting.

And this morning I met them in Tachikawa after an interval
of over 10 years.

We enjoyed talking for 3 hours and they left Tokyo.

By the way, on a national holiday, people don't have
to go to work or school.

I am surprised to know both my daughter and her son
attend classes at university even on national holidays.

Is it because there are too many national holidays in Japan?
