Ayako went to Sapporo.

  It was cloudy in the morning, but became sunny in the afternoon. The weather forecast said it would be snowy in Sapporo and along the Japan Sea coast. Ayako wondered whether she should go to Sapporo to see her sister and her husband Shimizu, but it seemed not to snow today looking at the sky, so she left home at 9:00 am. She returned home at 3:30 p.m., saying it was not snowing in Sapporo.
  An email from Nayaoro. They invite in February next year, not only me but Ayako. Ayako has wanted to visit Nayoro but to think of our pet cat Leo and of leaving home in the winter time, she says she must give up going with me. She says I may turn down the offer.
