JAPAN

 * //I like Japan because it has a lot of colors and is full of energy. In Japan, bowing is extremely important. It shows honor and respect t[[image:day1hr7mg/tokyo.jpg width="270" height="180" align="left"]]o the person you are doing it to. When people in Japan have meals, they begin by saying itadakimasu("I humbly recieve"), which is equal to saying grace. At weddings, it is traditional to for guests to present a gift in an envelope. Birthdays that are considered special in Japan are the twentieth, sixtieth, seventieth, eighty-eighth, and ninety-ninth. Blowing your nose in public is considered rude, and you should cover your mouth when using a toothpick.//**
