Japan consists of small islands. The four biggest islands are called "Hokkaido", "Honshu", "Kyushu" and "Shikoku". My hometown is on Shikoku island, the smallest one of these four islands. The water area that lies at the north of Shikoku is called the Seto Inland Sea. This sea is known as the most peaceful sea in Japan.
The ferry boat that I got on was very slow and was overtaken by a small boat. You might figure out how calm this sea was from the picture.
