Christmas in Tokyo and Sendai
Japan is basically a country of people who either are not religious or do not take religion very seriously. However, they do take decorating for Christmas very seriously! (I guess they aren't too different from Americans after all).
(1) Christmas at Disney Sea. A gigantic Christmas tree at the American Harbor portion of Disney Sea in Tokyo.
(2) Christmas at Odaiba in Tokyo (Odaiba is shopping/entertainment center that was built on reclaimed land in Tokyo). That night it was pretty much all couples on dates walking around the joint.
(3) Christmas outside of Roppongi Hills in Roppongi, Tokyo. Hyunjoo isn't sure which is the more beautiful sight to behold - the lovely trees around us or the two-story Louis Vuitton across the street behind us.
(4) Christmas in Ginza, Tokyo. Even the Christmas trees in Ginza (famous for its designer stores) are made by Chanel. Jesus (get it?).
(5) Christmas in Shinjuku, Tokyo. Rie and I pose outside of Takashimaya.
(6) Christmas at Sendai Station. Upon returning from Tokyo, the amount of decorations in Sendai had seemingly tripled.
(7) Christmas at Kotodai Park, Sendai. Santa Claus has come to town - in the form of a glowing, 25-foot decoration taking a dump in the park's fountain. I don't want to know why he has that look on his face.
(8) Christmas on Jozenji Avenue, Sendai. Going a little overboard with the Christmas decorations, Sendai doesn't seem to want to let you forget its Christmas. While I typical thing lights in trees are beautiful, the lights on Jozenji Avenue are approaching difficult-to-look-at. I felt like I was going to get an epileptic seizure.
