When I heard that it was winter in Japan, I was reminded of the snowy country of Hokkaido. #Biei in Hokkaido is famous as the blue pond. The contrast between the mysterious blue pond and the pure snow was very beautiful.

Winter in Hokkaido and Sapporo. This year, there is no snow festival and it is quiet.

Sunrise in Biei The weather forecast was bad, so I was prepared for it, but I could see a little sunny, so I used a slow shutter.

Morning Mist no Tancho Crane @ Otowa Bridge I bought a ticket for Hokkaido because I wanted to go here. There were many people even though it was the end of the year. It was a warm winter, but we managed to generate river fog.

Not a very long article but I love yakitori! It reminds me of when I was in Hakodate visiting my girlfriend this was a long time ago and we went to a yakitori shop. The lady that worked there was really awesome and we were able to talk with her and ended up having a really great time trying all different types of yakitori and having drinks. I definitely prefer yakitori cooked on a teppan and I don't remember if that's how they were cooked at that restaurant but either way it tasted great. We actually ended up going to a snack bar later that night and drinking a bunch with some older ladies and gentlemen and doing karaoke together lol! Was a total blast talking with the locals. One of the older ladies had a giant bottle of Shochu in her purse too and shared most of it with us. Hopefully I can visit Hakodate again soon. That burger restaurant Lucky Pierrot I think it's called? was really good too. Apparently it's only in Hakodate though sadly.
