Christmas in Japan

Ah, one thing I forgot to mention...

Japanese people typically treat Christmas as a commercial holiday for couples. Fancy restaurants become booked on Christmas Eve, and people are often seen giving gifts to each other. Christmas day is actually a work day, so it doesn't really feel like Christmas anymore after Christmas Eve...

Anyways, another difference about Japanese Christmas. Japanese people typically don't eat turkey for Christmas. They eat chicken! More specifically, Kentucky Fried Chicken.

This was the line for a KFC in Shinjuku on Christmas Eve. Keep in mind that this particular KFC was on the 3rd floor of this building...

Where is the end to this line?!? Can you see it? Because we sure couldn't...
Crazy, huh?
