RE: Great Buddha in Nara
That's great that it's a holiday in Singapore! Did you get the day off work?
Though Japan is a largely Buddhist country, there was no holiday here today. Last week we had a nice set of National holidays from Wednesday to Friday, so there were only two days to go to work!
Nice. Last year i heard they have silver week amd golden week. our business offices are close but retail shops and restaurants are mostly open.
Yes, this was Golden Week, Silver week is in September. Same deal, most businesses are closed but retail places are open for the people on holiday to do some shopping, sometimes there are some pretty good sales too!
