The Susukino Site is in the middle of the young entertainment/shopping area of Sapporo. There had some amazing ice sculptures in this area. This one had crab and fish frozen inside ice blocks.

So Chase and Cole are standing in the famous Ramen Alley. There are about 20 different Ramen noodle restaurants inside this alley and each restaurant can only hold about 6 to 15 people. It is a great way to warm up from the cold.

I can't say I am a huge potsticker fan, but these just melted in my mouth. So so good.

Cole had crab noodle soup (king crab in the shell, scallops, and clams with a miso broth) and I had a corn noodle soup that were SO good (Cole said it was the best ramen he has ever had). Chase even loved the ramen. He was so cute. We would wrap a noodle for him around a chopstick and he would put it in his mouth and slurp the noodle down. The Japanese consider slurping a sign of good food(which drives me crazy) and a compliment to the chef. Sapporo is also known for their wonderful crab and shellfish dishes.

Ice mermaid and an almost finished ice transformer. We visited this site the day before the festival and they were still working on a lot of the sculptures. Chainsaws and jackhammers.

Remember when you girls use to make "CRAB Soup" in Kingwood? And here is Tig 20 years later enjoying Crab Soup with Ramen in Japan. How fun. And I just love the pictures of Muffin Man with his rosy cheeks.
