Tokyo-Style Christmas


Hello everyone. It's #1 reporting from Tokyo where it has been incredibly sunny and warm since my arrival (yes, it is supposed to be winter here...). I thought you might find it fun to see what the Christmas spirit looks like around here:

  1. Is there any turkey hiding in there ?
    I have heard sushi is very fresh fish - maybe that would make a yummy Christmas meal ?
    Good luck on your travels.

  3. Thank you for sharing Japanese Christmas.
    We Japanese almost puts up Christmas decorations and eats Christmas cake and Kentucky Fried Chickens though only around 2% of us are Christians. We love Christmas mood very much. It makes us cheerful and happy! I wonder if we are funny.

  12. It looks like a lot of the celebrating centers around food. That is just perfect as far as we are concerned!
    What a really fun time to be in Tokyo.

    How are things at home with the little ones.

  13. How FUN! Mommy thinks blogging is the best thing for learning about people all over the world! We see a lot of the signs are in English; is it widely spoken?
    The angel wings with the red bow was our favorite.

  14. Enjoyed seeing your photos...reminded me of my trip to Japan in 2008. We were there almost the whole month of November, and just like here, everything was already decorated for Christmas.
