I'm not asking a child about this because I know all that. I myself was a Japanese child until just a few years ago! Christmas was fun. Back then I just never knew it was a national holiday in many other countries.

Missing the pre-subway era in Nagoya... The streetcars, the little 3-wheeled automobiles and not a single skyscraper. An okonomiyaki only cost 20-30 yen! 10 yen got you a big icecream bar. Only a few years ago....
