July 1, 2004, AFP--TOKYO, JAPAN:Mickey and Minnie Mouse, who play Altair the Cowherd and Vega the Weaver, wave to spectators from the float to celebrate Tanabata or the Star Festival at the Tokyo Disneyland 01 July 2004 for the special event "Star Festival Greeting", will be carried through 07 July. In Japanese legend the two lovers, the star Altair and Vega, who are separated by the Milky Way on most days of the year, meet just once a year on July 07.

Hey, I like Tanabata. It's certainly more creative than 'Ocean Day'.. WTF is that!?

Tanabata's romantic and/or tragic, depending if it's clear of cloudy.. Ocean Day's just fucking lame.

Ocean Day officially called "MARINE DAY"--->Image

"Concrete Day" would be more appropriate.
