Herve just arrived in Japan and we are traveling together for some weeks.
FOr the first time we are going to Hokkaido, the north of Japan.
To go there we haven taken this tunnel under the see :-)
and there we are. Oh no that's something else. Nobody's scared that's just an information!
funny no? This is because Hokkaido is reputated for the seafood!
and here we are in the biggest city there, Sapporo, known abroad (or not) for it's beer, that I haven't tried until now… but well that's ok I guess!
We went to visit a small city nearby called Odaru.
With old buildings from german I think, since many things are in German.
So you have very old buildings with a mix of european and japanese style, very nice
and you see german…
I told you
in this city you have a lot of shops, and many of them sell music boxes, I don't know why but this is great!
You have all kind of shapes, like sushi music boxes, yes we are in Japan!!!
or cats:-)
and theses shops are in these olds buildings, this is so nice
look at that!!!
you have also a lot of funny shops with japanese characters, I don't remember the name of this one...
Totoro, kiki and many more !!!
big bear and small bear, don't ask me what they are doing :-)
and this is underwear for dogs, yes because they need it!!!
and what I prefer in this city are the food shops, because you can try!
And I try, we have done the shops minimum twice and without buying anything I have eaten so much cakes and cookies and chips, a full meal :-)
no comment!
oh that one I bought, delicious by the way :-)
the crab I told you about before
I let you admire the shops and old buildings...
and because of that canal this is called the little venice of north, hum a bit exaggerated no??
I after I have chosen my own seafood ...
and hop a grilled fresh one, hum delicious!!
and these one are really fresh, still living…
tomorrow more visits in Hokkaido!!!
