Yuki Matsuri-Ice Sculptures

Towards the beginning of February, I went to Sapporo in Hokkaido with about 35 other ALTs. We visited during Yuki Matsuri, Sapporo's snow festival. I'll try to make a few posts about my trip. In this one, I've included the ice sculptures. I'm not exactly for sure what to say about them other than they were really cool. I think the pictures are pretty self-explanatory. I think it's incredible that anyone could make anything like that out of a massive block of ice. While looking at the ice sculptures, we took frequent trips to warming rooms because it was absolutely freezing. I really enjoyed the snow though. If it's going to be winter, it might as well snow. That makes the cold bearable.
