Happy New Year~!
New Year morning in MORINOKI. The boss made us some really nice New Year broth and also his homemade bread which was so thiiiicckkk it was just lovely!
So today we were heading to Sapporo. We visited a temple on a hill first. Up there we could see a part of Otaru. The scenery was great. Snow was deep! We loved playing with the snow!
Mum's cool facial
I was making friends with my lil snowman
When we reached the Sapporo station the first thing we did was... find a fast food restaurant! Aha! We haven't had enough of it yet!
Once we got out of the station we headed straight for Odori Park. Have I told you yet how much we loved the snow there? It was still daytime so the beautiful lights weren't swtiched on yet. We had to wait till it got darker.
We went to the ISHIYA Chocolate Factory and when we entered we felt like little kids. There were tiny houses everywhere and A LOT of other cool decorations. The buildings there were really amazing. There was a clock tower!

Collection of labels
Some dated posters
A choco tunnel!
Old cans/packages
The DIY section only for kids
This is a very old model of the Kawasaki engine. That "dude" riding on it was COOL. The best part was, everytime we got near its front, the engine started by itself and the rider's eyes glowed red.
They had an entire HALL of glass cases filled with these collections of outdated antique toys..
We sat down for ice cream... simply outstanding.

At night
On the way back to the Sapporo station we passed by Odori Park again and this time, it was illuminated!
There was a glowing aquatic living thing that was really interesting. I forgot the exact name of them but I think it was smth like "water angel"?
One other thing was the Marimo. I really wanted to bring one back!!
Sapporo city at night.
Alright, we took that night train again, heading for Tokyo. On the train we had some snacks before going to sleep. We had some Komekko (scallop flavoured senbei snack) and a sesame coated Daifuku (glutinous rice cake).
P/S: The following pictures were taken during a train ride but I'm not sure when it was. The scenery was so beautiful~ look at those mountains and the clouds.
End of Day 10
