Trip to the Land of the Rising Sun - part 3

It's been a while since I write about my trip to Hokkaido. Here is part 3!


We finally arrived at the Sapporo airport. It's around 3pm local time but the sun is ready to set. During winter the day time is shorter.


My cousin learning Japanese through his Ipod...



We took a 1 hour ride to our first destination, the Noboribetsu volcanic mountain inside the Toya national park. As the name implies, it looks like hell… and I smell rotten eggs…


It’s pretty adventurous to walk on the walkway deeper into the midst, and here we caught some interesting photos...


Mysterious ray of light. What a coincidence...


Vampire Huntress... See the glowing eyes behind??? Spooky...


and the Vampire Hunted...


Ambient lighting at the rest area.


Ice Cream vending machine! Why can't we have one here in Malaysia???


My little sis: Must wear chocolate glove to eat chocolate ice cream...


more to be updated later, including Hot Springs!

Trip to the Land of the Rising Sun - part 2

Our first transit at Kansai Airport before going off to Hokkaido.

Kansai Airport is built on a man made island near Osaka. It was so big that the surrounding sea wasn’t visible from where we were there.

The next flight will be 4 hours later, and we are hungry and tired.

We try to stay awake by taking a breeze outside. Temperature is around 5 degrees C.

Vending machines are all over the place. Having a can of hot coffee in this kind of weather is so refreshing.

And always think before you throw.

Crabs will cut your fingers if you don’t pay attention…

Variety of foods can be found in the airport.

The very famous tori yaki, very well presented and tasty too.




This one is with cheese.

Sushi

Ramen

Japanese Curry Rice

And so on…

My cousin was so full until he slept while holding the cup…

Trip to the Land of the Rising Sun - part 1

Yes, here I come, Hokkaido and Tokyo!

I can't help but took a picture of the 10k Yen note before I use it up (you will regret if you don't use it ^^).

This note reminds me of the guy from Heroes and Red Alert 3.

and before we fly off to Japan

can't resist to take a photo of the tickets again... hehe
