Coming of Age Day


Yesterday was Coming of Age Day.
On January second Monday, Japanese people celebrate the young people who became 20 years old in that year. There is a big celebration where girls wear special kimonos. At the age of 20, they have the righs to vote and marry without their parents' permission.
Yesterday I went to culture hall for ceremony of adult. I saw my friends in junior high school and high school days after a long separation. A good time was had by all.
