October 10 was used to be Physical Education Day. But it's been moved to the second Monday of October since 2000. Therefore this weekend is a three-day-weekend.
This year we have three-day-weekend for 5 times, and five-day-weekend twice. It is very rare.
We can't take a long vacation as European people do. There are traffic jams here and there during these three-day-weekend. Since the toll fee of some express roads reduced to yen 1,000 on weekends from March 28, 2009, this spur the congestion.
