We originally planned to see the snow monsters, but because of the weather, only the bare branches were left.
It was a little disappointing, but on that cold, rainy, snowy day, a special cup of hot coffee really warmed me up.
It made the trip feel warm and sweet.

Hopping on the train with the Tamatebako bento service was such a joy!
At every stop, they bring you local ingredients—it feels like you’re tasting the care of the land the whole way.
That rich, home-cooked “farm mom” flavor isn’t just delicious; it feels like a series of connected stories, filling the ride with warmth and little surprises. -

It was my first time in many years seeing a whole riverbank covered in cherry blossoms in full bloom. It was so beautiful I was speechless (and kept taking photos).
When the wind blew, the petals drifted down like snow. It really felt like sakura snow. -

Because it was raining, we just did a quick photo stop and then took a little sightseeing loop around in the car.

I had a great time at Sato Yosuke experiencing the fun of hand-pulled noodles.
From savoring the aroma, to feeling the dough in my hands, to finally taking a bite of warm noodle soup,
it felt like I was recording a part of this trip through my taste buds.
The flavors were simple, but it was one of the happiest meals. -

Akita really knows how to promote tourism.
As soon as we got off the plane, we were given peach juice from Akita Prefecture. So thoughtful (they knew we were thirsty)!
The trip hadn’t even started yet, and we were already feeling all the sweetness〜🍑 -

A quick 30-minute Akita dog interaction session:
I thought I was going there to play with them,
but it turned into them being all clingy and begging for pets.
Akitas are honestly so cute it feels unfair—are they trying to adopt me? 😂
(Though to be fair, I’m actually kinda scared.) -

In winter, the Tatsuko statue at Lake Tazawa is supposed to be covered in snow,
but because of the unusually warm winter, the ground was totally bare—there wasn’t a single patch of snow.
It’s a familiar view, but without the snow, it looked completely different. -

To get in during the winter restrictions, you need to follow right behind the bus into New Tamagawa Onsen.
Soaking in the healing baths while looking up at the starry sky was a rare experience. -
