Thanks to all for your warm welcoming! The weather in Sapporo is getting fine, even if two weeks ago it was still snowing (well, not that much, but still snowing)... I was in Kyshu in March, and about March 20th, it was time for Hanami in Kagoshima. And now, this week end will be the Hanami time for Sapporo (last week Hakodate!).
