    Can’t wait to see your upcoming videos, we are thinking about doing this snow festival in 2025. But doing a tour from Hawaii, kinda interested on the train ride back from Sapporo to Tokyo cause we may extend our trip after the tour is done. Stay a few days in Tokyo to visit friends.

    Thanks, this makes planning a trip easier. I think you will have to do some careful packing since you need more layers. Maybe it’s not possible with just a carry on

    • @KenshoQuest
      @KenshoQuest  6 месяцев назад

      We have our packing almost figured out. I will pack clothes for myself and my daughter in one carry on suitcase. Then clothes for my husband and two boys in another carry on suitcase. Our weekender carry on bag will have puffy jackets and rain jackets.
      We will also have one checked suitcase with blankets, laundry items, tumblers, some spring clothing, and a few extras that don’t fit in the carry on bags.
      Here are the clothes we are bringing: ruclips.net/video/c7BoHPiHhro/видео.htmlsi=R-7WqZYB7AUdPzzV

    Thanks for sharing another great video. Would you recommend to buy winter clothing and accessories (i.e. snow boots, neck Scarf) from Aeon mall ( nearest to Chitose airport) instead from outlet.

    • @KenshoQuest
      @KenshoQuest  6 месяцев назад

      Aeon mall might be another good option. I haven't been to that Aeon location, so I'm not sure what the selection is as far as winter clothing and snow boots. There are lots of shoe stores selling snow boots in the Susukino shopping arcade. I visited the Mitsui Outlets for the Ugg store. 🌺 Heidi
