今年の２月の４・５日、青森県物産館アスパムで冬まつりが開催されました。冬のごちそうが大集合。あったか鍋と丼のフェスタも一つの魅力。
ASPAM / アスパム
It's a snow plowing vehicle. I wanted to climb aboard but it seemed like it was mainly for kids. As someone who's never lived in snow country, I thought it would be interesting.
北の国で良く見る除雪車。僕も乗りたかったけど、子供たちが多くて、列に並ぶ勇気はなかった。初めて雪国に住むことになった私が興味津々。乗ってなかったのはちょっと残念。
Aoi Umi Park / 青い海公園
Mutsu Bay / 陸奥湾
This looked kind of fun too but my wife was being Little Miss Party Pooper. Nope, didn't get go on the ice slide either.
この雪から出来た滑り台も楽しそうだったが、妻が興味なく、これも断念。乗れば楽しいのにな。
We went inside ASPAM where they were giving out free samples of this miso soup. A nice change from the cold weather outside.
アスパムに入ったら、無料でしじみ汁を配ってた。あ～、体が温まる。
Hm, different kinds of fish on a stick. Which ones shall I try?
なんだ？海の幸の串焼き。なにを食べてみるか？
Well, as I am now living in Aomori, I think I should have the hata-hata （sandfish) and maybe one other type.
青森県民になったので、やっぱりハタハタを食べないっと。あとはサケかな。
Those are some really big octopus legs!
タコの足がデッカイ！
Here was an even more interesting event. Picking up a huge octopus!
ここで更に面白そうなイベント。生のタコを持ち上げる体験！
Since I didn't get to ride on the snowplow are go tubing down the ice slide, I at least got to ride on a horse. It was a first for me. Here I am just waiting my turn.
除雪車も乗れず、滑り台を滑ず、一つくらいのイベントに参加したいなっと、乗馬初体験。今馬を待ってる最中。
Okay, so the horse was being led. Still, it's my first horse ride!
ま、人は馬を散歩してる感じですが、それでも、俺の初乗馬だ！
And that was pretty much it for the winter festival. We didn't try any one pot dishes or bowls and headed back home. Next week, we will be checking out the bigger snow festival in Hirosaki.
それで終了。あったか鍋や丼も食べなかった。このあとは普通に家に帰りました。来週は弘前の雪祭り行く予定なので、そっちのほうが楽しみだ。
