I enjoyed the many decorated international Christmas trees on display while visiting the Richard Nixon Presidential Library & Memorial yesterday. Each tree was adorned with ornaments significant to each culture. I am posting the tree for "Japan." I recently visited Japan so this one is of special interest to me. Most of the trees were easily identifiable without reading their country origin.
I had a very difficult time getting a clear focus on these photos. Flash photography is not allowed and neither is the use of a tripod (although I didn't have a tripod with me anyway). I am not happy with the sharpness of these photos...but, I am posting them anyway.

It must be aninteresting decoration for you Westerners, but for us Japanese it looks bizarre!(laugh)
How beautiful! That must have been neat to see all the different trees.
that sounds like an interesting display to view--love the pictures. If you want to wander down my road I’m home.

That looks really neat :) Thanks for sharing!
I love tradition -- but I also love it when someone is brave enough to tweak tradition a little. I think your pictures look great.
