31st December 2012 - Sapporo 札幌
Since the weather forecast predicted that it would be a day with snow storm. We decided to go to the Chocolate Factory of Shiroi Koibito 白い恋人 because it was indoor. Other places were not so suitable because we were scared that we would be stuck in the middle of nowhere if the snow storm became serious.
We slept until very late since our only plan was to visit the chocolate factory. I was grateful that the hotel we were staying has a convenience store on the first floor, I just went to the shop and bought my breakfast. Another plus point was the hotel was very near to the train station!
Then, we took the train to go to Miyanosawa Station 宮の沢駅. The factory was just a few minutes walk from the train station. A lot of tourists were heading to the same direction, so we didn't have to look into the map to find our way, just follow the crowd. Actually, the signboards were very easy to follow.
After we reached the chocolate factory, we were awed by the cute decorations. So, we posed here and there to take photographs for quite some time, behaved like children. Then, we went inside the factory and bought tickets. We decided to join a biscuit decorating course for fun too.
