"Nippon-Maru" & Year 2023 Firework Festival in my City;

                             

* Passenger Ship called "Nippon-Maru" *

 On 23rd this month, passenger ship called " Nippon-Maru, 日本丸" stopped at our city port. I enjoyed the gorgeous sight of the ship with my friend. I wonder if any of you have any experience to enjoy the trip with these kinds of ship. I never have... p;-)  

You might hear either "Nihon" or "Nippon" being said referring to Japan. Nihon seems to be a more current pronunciation of the name Nippon. In different areas of Japan, you might hear either Nihon or Nippon being said when a Japanese person is referring to Japan.

*Fireworks on the same day & same place (port)*

On the same day at the harbor, we enjoyed annual "Fireworks day". Let me post a few videos this annual topic again. Please be careful with the big sound of the works.
