Yesterday we saw the very first spring blooms pushing their way up, and today, we’re back to snow! Soaking up this last bit of winter with hot chocolate, puzzles & movies, and some fresh baked cookies this afternoon ❄️❄️❄️ . . . #visitdc #dclife #dcbig #dc #washingtondc #snowday #snow #citysnow #winterwonderland #white #visitdcwithkids #dcbig #parkbench #snowday #winter #cold #frozen

One of my favorite Japanese festivals is happening this week - the annual Sapporo Snow Festival! 3,800 people worked with 3000 tons of snow to build this immense replica of the Arc de Triomphe from the year we attended. Check it out if you’re in Japan right now, and visit the link in my profile for more of my winter favorites! #snow #snowy #snowfestival #sapporo #japan #winter #ice #sculpture #art #illumination #incredible #travel #travels #traveler #dcbig #visitjapan #wonderofnippon #nippon #travelblog #travelblogger #explore #seetheworld #winterwonderland❄️ #snowsculpture #arteverywhere #arteveryday

My nearly five-year-old loves dogs so we are learning about different dog breeds & types. Today, we learned about Akitas, so of course we also reminisced about Hachiko, the sweet dog who waited at Shibuya station every day - for nine years! - after his owner’s death for him to return. After Hachiko’s death, they put a statue of him in the square in honor of his loyalty. Swipe left to see how tiny my little guy used to be 😭😭😭 #tokyotravel #travel #travels #familytravel #shibuya #japan #gotojapan #hachiko #tokyo #travelblogger #akita #hachi #traveller #rememberwhen #nostalgia
