Guess where...

It's the 5th day of the Hokkaido tour and we are now located at the Chitose airport...tonight we are living in the hotel in the airport itself...it's the first time we're living in an airport hotel and frankly, today we had quite alot of good food so feeling very full...

Thus far, today we had a rather packed schedule, waking up early by 5:15am. We visited the two waterfall called silver river and shooting star then we proceeded to Ainu Village to watch a cultural show, then we headed for the music box shop. I managed to buy one small wooden music box with a japanese tune, have to wind the music box ourselves first before music can be heard.

We went to the seaport market to have taraba which is the big crab and it tasted really good. We had to rush down to the white chocolate factory before it closes at 7pm. We saw how the chocolate biscuits were made and had time to try out the cake and ice-cream there. The chocolate cake was really rich and tasty. Otaro park was the next destination. We had another crab meal but this time tried the hairy crab. Of course it is not as tasty as what we had in the afternoon. By 10pm, we have checked into our hotel and by tomorrow we will be back in tokyo. If only we can travel by train or coach instead of plane...quite sick of taking flights especially when there's delay due to heavy traffic flow in the airport...waste time flyhing around in circles in the air...

By the way, caught the sunrise on the plane to Hokkaido the other day...quite magnificent. At least now I've caught both the sunrise and sunset on the plane before. =) Will blog more about the trip when back in Singapore, with photos too.
