Sakura, the early blooming.
★2015/04/25 21:04

Sakura, one of the most beautiful flower of them all
Sakura, one of the wonders on earth
Sakura, which has only about a week life
Sakura, which is too beautiful to be missed

Here it is!
The spring!
The Sakura season
.
.
.
Still in the early blooming~
.
.
.
Ready to go for our first O-hanami (Sakura-viewing) at a nearby park
.
.

Before whatever, lunch-time go first!
A little lunchbox for a little ‘hanami’ picnic

With Onigiri (rice-ball)

This is just a nearby park,
like around 8mins walk from our house

but we got to see Sakura

while picnicking!

Playtime after lunch

Walking around with the toy dump truck

Next, some bubbles-time under the Sakura~

One bubble

Scattering bubbles~

Focusing bubbles~

One big blow bubbles~

Go with the wind bubbles~

Next, climbing-up-the-Sakura-tree

“Mommy~”

“Look!”

“I climbed the tree!”

Nah, it was mommy carried him up~

Yay~

This winter, the different story.
★2015/04/11 00:15

See story of Last winter!

See story of This winter, the Sonata. (1st part)

This is the different version (2nd part) of our winter in Niseko this year

This was a journey, an adventure of me with my Little-big-boss traveling without hubby without daddy
(Yappi was busy with his work..)

Yappi dropped us at the airport and went to work straight away

The journey starts here

First, we had breakfast at Royal Coffee Shop in the airport (Haneda)
French Toast breakfast set

We were quite on time when we arrived at the waiting lobby but the flight was late due to heavy snow in Sapporo reported
.
.
.
.
.
I was worried that we might not going to make it that day..
Thank god, the gate opened an hour later

Excited on the plane waiting for the take off

Just when the plane started to move, Little-big-boss took off to his dreamland
.
.
.
.
.

Arrived! Yay

Ready to go out to the snow~~~
(We arrived one day earlier than Yuki-chan )
See story of This winter with Yuki-chan
.
.
.
.
.

Next step, waiting for the bus to the car rental shop!
.
.
.
.
.
All set in the car
Visited a friend in Sapporo on the same day

And, stayed a night at a nearby hotel (Apa hotel Sapporo)

Waking up so gracefully

Had a quick breakfast
before we head to the airport again to pick up Yuki-chan and Yuki-mommy
.
.
.
.
.
Once we were in Niseko,
we planned to have loads of snow-time
But unfortunately, poor Little-big-boss got a stomach flu on the very first night we arrived in Niseko

Had been vomiting whatever he consumed, even water..

He himself was quite okay except the vomiting part
He wanted to eat and drink, but his stomach was not allowing him to..

I limited his food/water consuming..
At night he kept waking up asking for water..

I can only give him a sip or two at once..

He kept nagging,
“I wanna drink water, I wanna drink water”

And it was heartbreaking where I can’t give him more

In the morning, he had some porridge
He ate them very eagerly, he looked just fine
I thought he was fine too until he vomited again

We still went to a nearby ski mountain, Asahigaoka Ski Park in Kutchan to have a leisure snow playing time
Little-big-boss didn’t seem to have much energy for the snow that day..
.
.
.
.
.
It was great that Little-big-boss was getting better before the last day of the trip

We still made it for some fun snow-time together

Little-big-boss looked completely well after the flu (@Hanazono Niseko Japan)

He had too much fun on the tube that he actually didn’t even let me sit on the tube together at all

Though I still able to convinced him for a snap
.
.
.
.
.
We moved to Grand Hirafu Ski Resort at noon to continue our snow-time

Yuki-chan’s mommy went for a ski lesson and I was in-charged to watched over the kids

They were good kids No hard time at all

We even had a tea/snack time

Back to the snow..
A snap with Little-big-boss

A snap with Yuki-chan

Yuki-chan’s mommy was back for a group-snap
.
.
.
.
.
Noon-nap time~
.
.
.
.
.
My turn to have a free-time!!

Can’t possibly leaving this wonderful snow mountain without a run from the top
.
.
.
.
.
The FOOD-time

Since Little-big-boss was not too well for most of the days, we didn’t eat out much.

Ramen at Hanazono 308.
Good hot ramen after the coldness in the snow

Italian food at Trattoria Bleu Cielo.
They had a very comfy space with toys for kids to play!!

Chinese food at Xie Xie Chinese Cuisine (シェイシェイ).
It was good and spacious.

We preferred the taste more at Kouka Chinese Cuisine (広華)
.
.
.
.
.
Time to go home..
Waking up..

Having breakfast..

Feeling heavy to leave..
.
.
.
.
.
But happiness continues

Category:my little-big-boss Niseko, the snowland

This winter, the Sonata.
★2015/04/07 01:57

See story of Last winter

Yes, we went to Niseko again this winter

This time the winter in Niseko was spent with a friend,
a “girl” friend

Meet Yuki-chan
Yuki-chan is a friend from baby swimming class since 1 year+ ago

They got along quite well

Yuki-chan was happy holding hand together and,
Little-big-boss was acting as if he was caring for Yuki-chan, leading her as a reliable man..

After some lunch..

They are ready off to a snow wonderland
.
.
.
.
.

While on the way, they were playing and chatting all the way..

Till they dozed off, having a noon-nap together
.
.
.
.
.

As always, once arriving Niseko,
we were always greeted by the great Mt. Yotei
.
.
.
.
.

This winter, we stayed at Tabi-Tsumugi, a hotel for backpackers in Kutchan town

This place was fabulous
Cheap, clean, good master with great service
Washing machine with dryer (extra charges), clean kitchen to use, sharing shower room and toilet, any information about Niseko, free ride to Niseko mountains, etc, etc~
