    If I did get in trouble it would be because I figured how to get the lantern through customs !

    When you see the street just overwhelmed by Fugu's and Tako's (octopus) it is so festive. When it is lighted up at night it is even better !

  5. My god, it's fantastic. I love puffer fish, I once saw a stuffed one, in full puff, in a museum and could quite happily have snuck it into my bag.

    I never thought of it like that but your so right.
    Lights go up everywhere for the Holidays but in Japan it always looks festive.
