Christmas in Ginza

Went to Ginza with Yasuko to have lunch, see a movie and shop. It was a National Holiday - the Emperor's Birthday, so the traffic was blocked on the main street and things were decorated for Christmas. They've done a lot with LED lights in the trees along the street, and banners. Lots and lots of people walking and looking around. It was a beautiful sunshiney day.


New vocabulary bura - bura = shopping around
Gin - bura = shopping around in Ginza
kamameishi = meal cooked in a heavy pot on the stove featuring rice in the first layer and greens and in this case chicken and slivers of yuzu peel on top. Oishii

Sounds like so much fun! Thanks for sharing the new vocabulary...I'll have to try to use that with my sensei.
