Good morning. The canal outside my hotel window was colored by the morning sun.
I arrived in Otaru yesterday. Today I’m walking around town.
The former Temiya Line was covered in snow too. A photo with Teto and Karin.
I passed Ginza Button’s old shop. I still need to see Chifuyu’s new workplace.
Mount Tengu in winter
I went to Mount Tengu for the third time.
It looked so different from summer and autumn. The town and mountains were white, and I showed the view to Karin.
I greeted the Karin panel in its tengu costume.
It was warmer than I expected, so I hadn’t needed the inner down jacket I brought. I was walking in thick Geo Line underwear, a T-shirt, and my Storm Cruiser jacket.
The snow-mountain boots were comfortable to walk in so far, even if they looked rather excessive.
Sushi for lunch.
Chifuyu’s new workplace
In the afternoon I visited Ginza Button’s new shop and saw Chifuyu.
I made a detour to Snow Miku 2026 too.
At the shrine I found Rikka dressed as a shrine maiden.
Then I went around taking photos with the panels. I made a heart with Karin at Iwanaga Watch Shop.
At Megane no Takada, another one with Chifuyu.
I still couldn’t line up the heart with Rikka at Animenix, so we settled for a thumbs-up. Third time wasn’t the charm.
I took a break with double fromage cake and coffee.
That was enough walking for today. Dinner was beer and half a fried chicken.
