snow everywhere!!!

we left the dorm around 11:30 and got to Haneda airport at 1. we had to pick up our tickets from the travel agency desk and then we went through security, never being asked to prove we were ourselves. The airplane had pokemon painted on the outside and the curtains cups and headrests had pokemon too.

It was snowing pretty heavily when we landed and still when we got off the train here. There is, literally, snow everywhere. the sidewalks and streets are under a layer of packed snow and theres almost no salt.

We found the hotel and left our stuff and wdnt to the snow festival.We walked the entire length of the park in both directions-but there was a lot of snow on many of the sculptures. Eventually we went back to the hotel and decided
to go to the connected mall to look for food. It was kind of confusing but eventually we found cheap food by running outside to a different building that was attached.

now its morning and the snow stopped. We are going to go to an outdoor museum that has many old buildings and maybe to the top of a mountain.
