Snow in March | Hokkaido

So my mom decided that we should try and at least find snow in hokkaido at the beginning of the month. It’s already Spring in most countries but Hokkaido was still at it’s negative 10 to 0 Celsius degrees. We booked our tickets with Airasia，booked our last minute wifi device from Travel Recommends and then brought my PS love heat pack with us for just incase situations. After all, we were only just gonna go for 3 days as I’m flying off again end of this week so I really needed to settle some stuff before I leave

妈妈的想看雪景三日北海道之旅，还真的有点小疯狂。其实三月要找雪，还真的要看运气，但是今年雪景迟迟不融化，平均温度还在于零下十度至零度左右，真的挺冷的。我们就这样三天前买了飞机票，来个说走就走的旅游。

First, you gotta eat. Trust me, nothing is good when you are hungry in winter. The airport does treat you pretty well with the options of Ramen Shops on the 3rd level. There is also a Guntetama and a Hello Kitty shop if you are into those kinda stuff. But once you are done eating, head over to the JR station and get your tickets! If you are travelling much, and not quite sure where you want to go, which is how our situation is as we just wanted to take snow photos, purchase the Hokkaido JR pass. There is a 3 days, 5 days and a 7 day pass that allows you to travel along the Hokkaido JR pass unlimitedly.

真的要吃饱啊，没什么比冬天饿肚子还来的辛苦。还好机场选择特多，拉面店也真的很多。吃饱了就要记得去JR 场买票，如果你和我一样，行程不太定或者一天下来可能会去很多地方，那你可以考虑北海道JR pass.

If you aren’t ready, you can always find plenty of snacks around the markets. With the Hakodate JR pass, it’s really easy to get around. Just figure out the schedule for the trains and off you go onto your next trip! We dropped by Hakodate morning market and found white strawberries and the freshest sea urchin too! Would have loved to stayed longer but Hakodate wasn’t snowing. So we spent most our time instead at lake toya, which is where we booked our accommodation. We did also make another half day trip at Onuma Koen, which is where we found our snow photos. On the last day we went back to Sapporo and spent our day at the beer park and to do some shopping

说真的，函馆还真的很多海鲜东西吃，但是因为函馆雪真的也不多，所以我们也只呆了一个早上，就到了别处去了。雪比较多的地方呢，是洞爷湖和大沼公园。我们在函馆找到白色草莓哦，真的好甜，好好吃～

Lake Toya is beautiful. We stayed at Daiwa Ryokan Annex, which was a ryokan that is about 100 years old. It was cheap, and included breakfast and dinner and had public bathrooms.

我们住的旅馆呢有差不多百年的历史了。住宿还包括早餐和晚餐，还真的挺值得的，但是要注意咯，这个旅馆是典型日本旅馆，所以洗澡的地方是公众的哦

Nothing really beats the comfort of finding a nice warm restaurant to view the beautiful lake. Mind you this was literally all I was wearing underneath the blue fluffy jacket. This restaurant was just down the road from where we stayed and had beautiful window panels overlooking the snow and lake. Food is great too!

我们旅馆附近有家很漂亮的餐馆。食物好吃，而且最重要的还是他们的景！落地窗还看到一大片雪景，真的还是过瘾啊。对了，怕冷的人绝对不建议你像我这样的穿法，不是天气不冷，是我真的有做了功课，自己衣服上面其实还有放暖暖包，加上外套才不会觉得冷

My fav place this trip, was a surprise find at onuma quasi park. We weren’t sure if we wanted to stay at Hakodate, so we bought ourselves ice cream and ran for our next train undecided to where we’d wanna stop. Decided against Mori because it was next to the ocean and the vicinity of Onuma Koen station had so much snow!

这次旅游的惊喜还真的是这个大沼公园。一片片雪白的景色看了真的好兴奋！结果这一呆，就呆了一大半天了，心情真的好好啊
