about

"The noise of the rough waves pounding the shore sounded as if they were crashing by my bedside, and it seemed that, although I wished otherwise, the dreams in which I had been able to travel back to the capital could be no more.

O white waves of the open sea,
Allow me at least
My nighttime travels home,
Though I suffer from a journey
Of my own heart's making." – the nun Abutsu

The nun Abutsu would perhaps be happy to hear that today you can't hear the waves – even from in front of the houses closest to the shore – for the constant roar of the motorway that runs right through that part of the country. Even after midnight (which is when I went out to record) the traffic is unrelenting, and you have to walk a considerable distance away from the road with your feet almost in the water to be able to hear the waves fully.
