Hokkaido Day 9&10


View Larger Map

Futoshi to the rescue!!! Futoshi came and helped us through all the technicalities and then drove us to the airport in Sapporo!

Futoshi is a pig and Ruu is a bunny!?


Famous omiyage shop in Obihiro.
Beautiful views on the drive!


Outside of an Ainu shop. The Ainu are a minority living mostly in Hokkaido that not many people know about. More info here >>ainu<<

and that's how my head was injured!

We made a short side trip to see the set of 北の国から From the North Country which was a long running famous tv show in Japan. Similar to Home on the Prairies.

Futoshi was tickled!!!




He looks right at home!

Showing how bales can be fun!

This was our sexy rental car!

Ate out that night and Naomi had her first try of raw chicken!



And so out trip ended!
