Hirosaki Snow Festival 2015

Drove all the way to Hirosaki (2.5 hrs one way) as he had tasks to complete. But what a wrong day to start, the weather was terrible with snow blizzard under -5 degree at least so you can imagine how bad was it. Luckily nothing bad happened along the way. We visited the Hirosaki Snow Festival and was thoroughly disappointed. All the sculptures were covered in snow, we hardly know what were the characters and we walked quite a distance yet there were nothing much haha! Think it would be nicer and more romantic in the night with all the lights. Oh well, it was still the 1st time for us to visit the castle during the winter.  Drove to Aomori where okaasan served us delicious nabe (hotpot)! 

the actual road conditions was 3 times worse than it look in the pic

cannot see anything  without snow on our face

fake funashi become fujiji but can't see how it looks

finally something resemble even though its covered in snow
