 Around the Tokyo station, it will be a more beautiful spot to visit at this year's Christmas time. Because there will be an event called "Marunouchi Bright Christmas 2012".

They collaborate for the celebration to hold some amusements around Marunouchi area. One of them is to set some dresses and production designs the company using up as like museum and a Christmas Tree will be at 1st floor of Maru-bill from 15th November to 25th Desember, 2012. The Christmas Tree has a theme that is "The Phantom Of The Opera". It will be mysteriously beautiful and give us a different taste on the Christmas time.

After-Mas

 Just after the Christmas Bash, everything seems calm and preparing for the new year and, of-course, Japanese Boxing Day, on 2nd Jan. People talks about this past disastrous, harmful and devastating year, and just set yourself ready for the next. That's great because we only can go forward.
 How have you been in this year 2011? Is it better than before or not?
For me, it's a recovery. It's a regrouping, redemption and defining me myself, so to speak. Then I'm eager to take over the past and to go towards the next.


I wish you all have peaceful new year beginning.
Happy New Year!!

p.s. There are extra Christmas pics. Enjoy!!

Christmas Illuminations 2011-2012 Part.2

I've been few more places where are famous of Christmas Illuminations in Tokyo. Then, I totaly was surprised by what Ginza finally got better street by street, especially main street "Chuo-dohri Street". There are angels all over the street and in night these wings are amazingly beautiful!! Later, I will post some of the photos.

 And from this year, you can do "Hanami(Cherry Blossom Festival)" in winter time as much beautiful as in spring. Tokyo's own popular river side walk by " Meguro river" have started Christmas Illuminations as what famous it is. Cherry Blossoms, as I already mentioned, are so famous at the river side and now you may enjoy winter's too. It's quite something. Just walk alongside of the river with warmth inside that'd be pretty experience. 

Keep enjoying winter nights.
