2012.7.23

July 23 is known as fumi no hi (ふみの日), Day of Letter.  July is called fumi zuki (文月), month of letter and 23 is possible to read fu (2) mi (3), that means letter.  Day of letter of the  month of letter.  On this day the Japan Post issues special memorial stamps of two different unit price every year.  One is yen 50 for postcard, and the other is yen 80 for letter.
These days we often use emails and seldom write letters.
However receiving letters makes me happy, so I would like to write letters as much as possible.
Since my best friend's birthday is in this week, I have just written the card.
