“A northern California city on Friday celebrated the 10th anniversary of the washing ashore of a small boat two years after it was sucked out to sea during the 2011 earthquake and tsunami in northeastern Japan.
Crescent City held the Kamome Festival for the first time to commemorate the wild journey of the boat, the Kamome, from Rikuzentakata, Iwate Prefecture, and the bond it created between two cities on opposite sides of the Pacific Ocean.”
