A Longer Trip to Hokkaido

[mrs.dr.ron]

I wish I could grow these japanese hydrangeas at home - but I think it is way too hot on the sunshine coast !
There are so many pretty colours !!
And this was our last trip to Japan ! ........

We are walking down Sakaimachi Hondori street. Full of tourists and interesting.

This was a place selling Murano glass so they had this display.




But nice furniture.










We went back to the hotel and then drove to the Aeon mall hoping there were a few restaurants there. It appears it is often used to get your steps up.

Back to the hotel for a nap and then went out about 1800 to the street we had walked that day.






However virtually all the restaurants had closed for the day. So we went back to the BBQ restaurant. I once again had the Marzen beer.


Some of our food.

Otaru at night on the way back to the hotel.

Saturday breakfast.

And the last of Breakfast.






After breakfast we decided to drive to a couple of shrines/temples and up to the observation deck on the hill behind Otaru. Then to the Cape Observatory and possibly the railway section of the Otaru museum.


However things didn;t quite go to plan so I will pause this TR and start a special TR on the Dark Side of Japan Travel.

Beautiful photos @mrs.dr.ron

Am keen to know if you purchased one of those bread slicers?
Great invention (and clutter up the 3rd kitchen drawer)

Have a look at the other thread @drron has started, it is a little more than 'Sometimes things don’t go to plan'
