Golden Week - Japan

Golden Week (Green Day April 29)
About Golden Week I am looking forward to a golden week, because that's a holidays. That week I can relax and go out somewhere. Golden Week consists of 4 holidays. It's called "Green day" on April 29th. It was Syouwa-emperor's birthday, but he died in 1989. So now April 29th is changed into "Green day".
The other 3 holidays are called "Constitution day", "Children's day", "Holiday for a nation". The last one was made a few years before, to fill between May 3rd and May 5th. Thanks to that day, I can take 3 continuing holidays.
I am very happy. The reason of calling "Golden Week", I think, Saturday and Sunday join these 4 holidays, become long holidays.
