Kadomatsu
About 6 hours to 2007.
2006 is leaving and 2007 is coming.
People are preparing for 2007 and Kadomatsu is one of Japanese decorations in a New Year.
Kadomatsus are a pair of pine decorations and are placed in front of gates of a house in New Year season. It is consisted of pine, bamboo and others. Pine and bamboo are symbols of long life and gods are said to descend to pine.

We forgot to ask Mom to send us some Omochi this year, so we welcomed the new year with Okonomi Yaki - it was actually quite good! I hope 2007 is as picturesque as was 2006.
