~ Winter @ Hokkaido ~

[twosix]

I've visited Hokkaido during winter in Dec (2010) and in Feb (2012), and will be going again in Feb (2015).

My visit during Dec 2010:
Go Away, Sam...: Japan 2010

My visit during Feb 2012:
Go Away, Sam...: Japan 2012 (Feb)

During my Dec visit to Hokkaido (Sapporo, Otaru, Lake Toya, Noboribetsu), we didn't encountered any snowfall at all during that trip. It was early Dec I believe. Temperature was bearable, around 5 degrees i think.
Heard from my Hokkaido friend that it snowed in Sapporo the day before I arrived there, and a few hours after my flight departed from Chitose. -_-

Thanks for sharing.

Thanks all. Counting down to my 2nd solo holiday trip, still very scare and worry ahhh, plus a little excited. Kind of miss japan.

I left 1 pair of gloves and neck warmer to buy. The shop staffs told me ski gloves has better protection than mitten gloves.

My sis asked me am i going to challenge myself to the coldness in hokkaido?
When my colleags asked me where am i going for holiday trip? I no tell them. They will think 'this crazy gal, super scared of cold, always say so cold in office, still go hokkaido, somemore solo travel'.

I really think i am a bit crazy.

It is ok sis. Often I wish I could travel solo to Hokkaido too. The place has such magical charm to me that I would like to enjoy every min of it over there... at my pace... and at my schedule.

And I can @@ at sexy Hokkaido SYTs and school girls without getting serious injuries on my head.


Sigh... but being a family man, this will always be a dream to me


Enjoy your trip sis. Maybe you can find your Hokkaido prince charming over there this time hehe

Take care and enjoy your trip. Try to get a pair of ice cleats for your shoes as the road might be slippery due to ice forming.

顺起自然, i will be brave, everything will b fine. I hope.
