And what's the rush at this time of year when everyone knows it's going to be chaos!

What do Americans or the westerners do? Do they visit their parents in Christmas days? Or is this an oriental tradition?

Westerners do so but over 2 weeks time...a bit wiser for taking advantage of "time", that you cannot buy.

Yeah. I'll enjoy the nice peace and quiet of Tokyo.

As usual, I left just before the rush. And will return after the rush!

What do Americans or the westerners do?

Their employers usually give them a choice - to take one or two days and use their vacation time during another time of the year or to extend their vacation around this time of year.

This is the most depressing holiday in Japan.

Transport busy before public holiday. Who'd have thought it.

Missing the usual trains are at 120% clearly people are not travelling as much as they did last year.
