Yokosuka, Japan - 31st August 2013

By: cocoaby

Now AM9:00, but Japan is a very hot and humid(+33c and 62%) and strong wind.
But we went to "Umi-Kaze park"(Umi means Sea, Kaze means wind) by bicycle and my host.

We enjoyed playground equipment here.
And Many people will visit for fishing and camping and barbecue.

You can see uninhabited island called "Saru-shima"(Saru means monkey, Shima means island) in Tokyo Bay from this park .
Though it is Sarushima(Monkey Island), monkeys do not live...
Why called Monkey Island ?
We had good old story, monkey helped great monk Nichiren here 750 years ago.
Great monk Nichiren had been drifting at sea.
Monkey taught direction of land for Nichiren.
He narrowly survived.

I went back to the home since we too hot.
:rolleyes:
