Back to the Japan Trip.....

It snowed a few days before we left Sapporo.

The white fluffy snow looked beautiful on the bright yellow and red tree branches.

In a day, the colorful mountain in front of us became white and brown.

I took Maya to the outside to feel the snow.

She seemed very annoyed when she felt the cold snow flakes melt on her face.

She seemed scared (or surprised) when she touched the snow on a branch with her hand.

She didn't seemed to be so excited to play with the cold snow outside,

but she sure was enjoying the white view from the window.

Visited Great-Grandma.

Maya likes Great-Grandma because she gives her a slice of cake on a small plate with a folk in front of her just like she does to me.  Of course, Maya grabbed the piece quickly and had fun squeezing and trying to put the whole thing in her mouth.

Great-Grandma gave her a set of Matryoshka, Maya liked playing with.

It was from some country she visited where she doesn't remember.

On the bottom there is a sticker says "Made in USSR"

It must be real.

But, too bad, Great-Grandma glued the second small ones because it was loose....
