Woke up to a lovely snowy day !!! No flying so back to bed for a lovely lay-in! After breakfast went for a walk around the countryside. Beautiful sights with the snow everywhere. Hokkaido is the northern most island of Japan, and the least populated.


Went to lunch at a Crab Restaurant. Crab was caught in the Ohotsuku Sea of the Russian coast. Crab was served with slices of beef, crab soup, crab gratin served in a crabs head, and crab eggfried rice. Desert was pineapples and melon!!!! Delicious!!!!!!!! Great meal, good company and great views!!!! Afterwards, we were so full up that everyone went back to bed for more sleep!! I could get used to this life!!!

Check out this link to see the balloon that we flew in, a couple of days ago and that's our friend hanging from the balloon! Hence his nickname Kamekaze!
