The cold days continue. Today marks the first New Year's party of the year with my horse friends in Ibaraki. Ibaraki is known for its delicious food, so naturally, I'm looking forward to the New Year's party.
After riding, we'll slowly make our way to the Chestnut House.
Oh, what's the Chestnut House like?
I feel as though I've stepped into the world of Hansel and Gretel (though I'm not imagining any witches).
Spending a few warm hours in the cozy Chestnut House with good friends during the cold winter must be bliss.
Is it okay to be this excited before even riding? It is!
Well, more on the Chestnut House later...
