Merry Christmas from Okinawa
Here's to hoping that everyone's Christmas is festive and safe. Happy Hanukkah to my Jewish readers too.
Christmas in Okinawa doesn't feel quite like Christmas in the states. The weather, of course, is quite different, but the general atmosphere is not the same either. Only about 20% of the population is estimated to really celebrate Christmas here, so the decor is a bit lackluster.
I somehow doubt that we will have a "white Christmas," but I'm thankful that I get to spend it with my wife and kids. I'll certainly miss spending Christmas with the rest of my family, but that's why I get paid the big bucks.
Merry Christmas. Stay safe, and have a great week.
