2023.11.22

It was fine and rather warm.

Today is shosetsu (小雪), one of nijushisekki (二十四節気), the 24 solar terms. The last one was ritto (立冬) on November 8, and the next one is taisetsu (大雪) on December 7.
Shosetsu literally means little snow but it was warm like Indian summer though I did not enjoy this warmth.

Today is known as ii fufu no hi (いい夫婦の日), Day of Good couples because of the pronunciation of November 22 which is written as 1122.
It seems there are many wedding anniversaries.

Tomorrow is a national holiday called kinro kansha no hi (勤労感謝の日) Labour Thanksgiving Day.

I watched some useful YouTube.
