Kamakura (≧▽≦) fun~
I participated with my daughter. As we were two women, I was a bit worried (Will we be able to make it? Will it be cold?), but there were no problems at all! With the help of the staff (thank you very much!), we were able to make a snow igloo that we could sleep in properly! With two sleeping bags layered on top of each other, we didn't feel cold and it was a valuable experience. The food was also delicious. Next time, I would like to make a larger, wider snow igloo (^^♪ (This review has been machine translated into English)
