Traffic Jams at Midnight
Today is the Japanese national holiday called Yama no Hi (山の日 - literally "Mountain Day").
In most Japanese companies, the long summer holidays called obon yasumi (お盆休み - literally "Bon Holidays") began today.
I also returned my parents' home in Aichi from Tokyo.
In order to avoid traffic jams accompanying the holidays, I departed by car around 1:30 am, but I underestimated this holiday.
Despite midnight, I got traffic jams on the expressway.
I tried to take rest on a rest area, but there was no space to stop.
Surprisingly, the length of the traffic jams grew to around 30 kilometers at aroud noon.

深夜の渋滞
今日は山の日、国民の祝日です。
日本では多くの企業が、今日から「お盆休み」と呼ばれる夏季長期休暇に入ります。
私も今日、東京から実家の愛知に、車で帰省しました。
渋滞を避けるため、深夜1時半ごろに出発したのですが、帰省ラッシュを甘く見ていました。
真夜中にもかかわらず、高速道路に渋滞ができていたのです。
途中でパーキングエリアに寄りましたが、駐車スペースがなくて素通りしてしまいました。
昼頃になると、30km 程の渋滞ができていたようで、恐ろしいです。
