Our merry little Japanese Christmas
 |
| KFC and a Christmas cake |
On the 23rd we needed to make a quick trip to Nitori. Driving home I spotted a bakery (Petits Fours on the 85 near Makeman) that had a bunch of Christmas cakes on display. We decided to go all out with our Christmas in Japan and pick up some KFC. The cake took a bit of toddler damage but it was still delicious.
Definitely a fun way to celebrate!

Christmas Okinawan style

Although I took these pics on our weird beach trip, the weather's been amazing! Last weekend the highs were in the 70s. We even got a little sun burn at the Christmas party!

Little differences: Power lines
Power lines in Japan are mostly above ground. I've heard this is because of earthquake damage (easier to see where the break is rather than digging cables up) but others say that creates the problem of fallen poles and wires blocking roads after a disaster. I've also heard overhead is cheaper than buried lines. Either way, definitely makes for a different view.
