Teradomari.
Teradomari is a historic fishing town/village in Niigata Prefecture, Japan, with a rich history rooted in Buddhism (thus the "tera" in the name, meaning "temple") and fishing.
The area, located near the base of Mt. Yahiko, is a popular tourist attraction for folks from all over Japan, and all over the world. Sometimes I forget how lucky I am to live in Niigata. Today as my son and I went to meet a friend and enjoyed the aquarium and the market (and some fine seafood) I remembered just what a nice little place Teradomari is.
I hope you'll enjoy coming along with us on our little day trip!

Finally, what trip would be complete without a "Miracle Poop" golden good luck keychain???!
