Thanks to Yui, I now know about the lovely Japanese holiday of Hina Matsuri - Girl's Day. Held on March 3, the country celebrates the healthy growth of its girls....
Grandparents gift ceremonial dolls to their grandkids & peaches, alcohol and pink/white/green coloured rice cakes are imbibed.
And then everyone goes to the sea....sounds nice to me!
