Christmas - Next big holiday here in Japan
Nov. 15, 2019 - We went to the apartment of a family that we teach at their place because they have a 10 year old at home. This lobby was already decorated for Christmas since Halloween is over and the Japanese people don't celebrate Thanksgiving. Since majority of Japanese don't believe in Christ, celebrating Christmas obviously is a commercial / social thing here. Many stores have their Christmas decorations up and Christmas related items displayed for sale. I am going to miss eating turkey, pumpkin pie, and everything else that usually end up on the Thanksgiving dinner table. We'll just have to have a good substitute.
