Notes
days off in a row 連休;
—————————-
Welcome to the new Reiwa Era! Yesterday was the end of the longest Golden Week in the history of Japan. Many workers had 10 days off in a row, from April 29 to May 6. About 25,000,000 people were traveling during the holidays. Many people were traveling abroad, and the most popular foreign destinations were China and Korea. There were many people traveling around Japan too, but this year the traffic jams were not so bad. The trains were not as crowded, either. Because the holidays were longer, everyone didn’t have to leave and return at the same time. (by Prof. Douglas Jarrell)
