Our Christmas Tree is Up! ロビーにクリスマスツリー

December 9, 2007: 亀清旅館 Kamesei Ryokan

亀清旅館のロビーにクリスマスツリーを飾っておきました。私達家族が10+年間を掛けて集まったオーナメントを掛けました。欧米からのクリスマススピリットです。

Back in the States, it's an annual ordeal to try to keep in mind the 'reason for the season' as Christmas tends to get bogged down in over-commercialization. In Japan, all the stores play Christmas music and decorate (complete with Christmas trees that always say 'Merry Christmas' on them -- otherwise I guess you wouldn't know it's a Christmas tree?). But here it's a hollow 'season without a reason'.

Here at Kamesei Ryokan, we're trying to keep it real for our kids, as well as share a little Christmas spirit with our guests. So once again, we managed to get a fir tree for our lobby and decorate it with ornaments that our family has collected over the years.
