Learn Japanese the Fun Way at JapanesePod101.com! The New Year holiday continues here in Japan. In today’s dialog, Kōji and Mariko are racing to get to Mt. Fuji in time for hatsu-hinode, the first sunrise of the year. We’ll talk a little bit about this unique Japanese tradition and the more recent tradition of police blockades to stop rowdy motorcycles gangs from ruining it for everyone else. After listening, stop by JapanesePod101.com and be sure to leave us a post!
