Tigger is waiting

Anxiously, and perhaps, impatiently waiting. Very eager to catch his plane that will take him to the coldest part of Japan -- in Hokkaido.

Our flight was at 8:30am and we had to leave our place very early. This means waking Tigger up very early, which is not an entirely good idea, especially when traveling, for we can only expect tantrums -- and more tantrums. Luckily and surprisingly, we didn't have any trouble on our way because he slept -- and slept. The only glitch we had was he pooped when we finally arrived at the Fukagawa train station and no comfortable diaper-changing section. So we had to wait till we got to a big shopping mall with wide and well-maintained rest room. ;)

Generally, our entire trip door-to-door was fascinating, especially so that we were flying low I could see the vast mountains and plains covered in snow. More exciting when we finally got upclose with the thick and sparkling snow, seeing all white in every turn. Well, this is not the first time to see, touch and play with snow, but it's a bit different to "live" in snow.
