Pumpkins bring the Halloween spirit to two of Japan's amusement parks

Amateur photographer Dawn Sato found Halloween in full swing when she visited Tokyo Disneyland and Universal Studios Japan last year in September. Everywhere you looked there were pumpkins, she said. "Except for Tokyo DisneySea Park," Sato said. "That park was supposed to have its holiday makeover the week after I went," Sato said. "I was debating about going back the next week but (when the time came) I was tired of walking."
