LIVING AT NOBORIBETSU MARINE PARK NIXE It's the dorsal fin of a dolphin! As the name suggests, the shape is like a sickle that cuts grass It was 🐬 named Dolphin because of its resemblance

I found a person riding a bicycle through the Karikachi Pass! He is a university student in Kanagawa Prefecture and plans to run from Kushiro to Asahikawa over 10 days. We will stay at a hotel on the way, but there will also be camping. It seems that you are wearing spiked tires, but please drive safely until the end of the road and enjoy Hokkaido in winter.

We visited Hokkaido Avant in Shintoku Town. Sauna enthusiasts from Kyoto and Oita, including Sau researchers from Tokyo, experienced a cool down by soaking in cold water drilled in a frozen lake after the sauna. Voices that could be interpreted as cheers and excitement echoed through the lake. After cooling down, we enjoyed a long quiet time on the ice merry-go-round.

Wood learning at the nursery! At the end of January, we held a wood-learning program at a nursery. Previously, we published an experimental report about making crafts from milk carton paper fibers. Here is a quick look at the children's creations. Simply touching the fluffy paper fibers floating in the water filled the room with joyful laughter.

Bye-bye! The appearance of 🐻 a large snow bear Would you like to make winter memories? * Come and play before it 😆 melts

The most important scenery in Japan is the enthusiasm and attentive spirit of the people, and this photo shows the dedicated spirit of the operators at Sapporo Station in Hokkaido.

Melting Milk Cartons The other day I happened upon an experimental setup. Many milk cartons sat submerged in a pot. A staff member promoting wood education was peeling them off. At first I wondered what they were peeling. They were removing only the plastic film from the outside of the milk cartons so they could use the inner fibers. They silently peeled the warmed, water-soaked cartons and tore them into small pieces. The torn paper fibers went into a blender with water to be broken down even further. It looked a bit like porridge... Then, they took a handful of the pulpy fibers soaked in plenty of water and scooped them up with a poi net like those used for goldfish scooping. After scooping, they removed the excess water and gave the poi a sharp shake, causing the pulp to come away cleanly from the net. Once dried, the result is a perfectly round piece. You can also press in yarn, leaves, or other materials to create an original work.

[Okhotsk Fair Held at Chikaho] In 2024, my constant companion, the Setoushi-kun doll, made its Sapporo debut! Over two days on January 24th and 25th, the Okhotsk Fair took place in the Sapporo Station Underground Walkway (Chikaho). Municipalities and shop owners from various Okhotsk regions set up booths and exhibited. From Nishiohkobe Village, Milk Design Co. came to Chikaho. Although the weather was stormy across both days, foot traffic at Sapporo Station never dwindled, and visitors from abroad made purchases as well. Those two days were supported by neighboring booth exhibitors. Thank you very much!

The snowy landscape of Abashiri from the air flights. The abashiri city in Hokkaido is a winter wonderland. Mountains, lakes everything is understand snow. Even one can walk in middle of lake because the lake became frozen lake. It is really a best winter destination.

In the middle of Hokkaido, Biei is a hill town. In the summer, it is full of tourists, but in the winter, Biei is also wonderful. The moment the snow-covered hills shine in the morning sun, the whole area is dyed gold.

A house with a red roof in the hill town of Biei, in the middle of Hokkaido In winter, snow accumulates and the roof becomes white. Here It's nice to see it from Shin-Sakae Hill, but even if you look at it from below, it feels like it's buried in fluffy snow, which makes you feel happy to see it.
