Bus guides celebrate coming-of-age ahead of national holiday

TOKYO, Japan - Women celebrate coming-of-age in Tokyo on a double-decker tour bus on Jan. 8, 2010, ahead of Jan. 11, the Coming-of-Age national holiday. Hato Bus Co., which offers sightseeing bus services in Tokyo, invited 17 of their tour guides who are or will turn 20 years old as of April 1 for a celebration because they are unable to attend ceremonies during the actual holiday in their hometowns as they will be at work.
