2009 SAPPORO SNOW FESTIVAL IN JAPAN

The Sapporo Snow Festival, one of Japan's largest winter events, attracts a growing number of visitors from Japan and abroad every year.


Every winter, about two million people come to Sapporo to see the hundreds of beautiful snow statues and ice sculptures which line Odori Park,the grounds at Satoland, and the main street in Susukino.


For seven days in February,these statues and sculptures(both large and small) turn Sapporo into a winter dreamland of crystal-like ice and white snow.

The Snow Festival began in 1950, when local high school students built six snow statues in Odori Park.


In 1955, the Self-Defense Force joined in and built the very first massive snow sculpture, for which the Snow Festival has become famous for now.


The Festival has grown from these humble beginnings to become one of the biggest and most well known of Hokkaido's winter events.

LUXURY PRIVATE JET

Pimp out your Private Jet with one of the finest luxury aircraft customizer’s in the world.


“Lufthansa Technik is the single-source service provider for large VIP, Corporate and Government aircraft that are customized to the individual operators’ desires.”

We’ll say, these interiors look like Scarface bought a Jet and decided he would live in a mile-high flying mansion (thanks TrendHunter).


The style in the pictures below has an almost retro-meets-modern feel, but we dig the German company’s customizations none-the-less.

Lufthansa Technik will customize the interior of your private jet to your liking including bedrooms, conference rooms, bathrooms with full shower, full-on entertainment systems with the latest technologies, wireless LAN and remote controled DVD, TV, MP3, bar service, emergency room (yes like an operating tale), jacuzzis and really whatever your heart desires.


Check out the pictures in the gallery to get a taste of what the true high-end private jet customizer can do.
