2005 Mid-Year Conference for all Hokkaido JETs in Sapporo

	This advertisement was in the elevator in our hotel. Because nothing says "Ride our rails" like gay male gymnast dolls.
	And here's how the mall celebrates Christmas. Yes, Santa wears blue, and that is his ass hanging off the mall entrance.
	Downtown Sapporo at night. Mind you, this is winter, but due to colder than average temperatures interspersed by bursts or warm-to-melting-point weather, there hasn't been nearly as much snow as last year. This was also early December, so not too far into winter yet.
	There was a massive march/demonstration/protest of some kind, involving many vans with loudspeakers and long masses of people. I have no idea what is was about though. Anyone know enough Japanese to read that van's blurry sign?
	Hehe... Pole Town
	This looked so much like an advertisement I had to take the shot. Smokin' Clean isn't exactly the slogan I'd use for cigarettes though...
	Here's the front of Sapporo Station
	That's all folks. Have a Very Xmas!
