This just goes on and on.

Alright ! I'm back to share some photos taken in Hokkaido, Japan. 

All ready to set off to Japan with our shoes. Served us well for 10 days.

At the airport before checking in our luggages. Okay I swear I should have bought the Esprit one instead of letting my mum buy the pierre cardin one. I don't like it.

Ta-da ! Angry bird at changi airport :x



Japan's international airport.



First meal since touch down - Lunch ! Sukiyaki (:








First stop place of visit. Hell Valley. It sure was hell, the icy pathway was soooo slippery, I almost fell. D:



Brother making stupid faces because he say he was dying of coldness.


Don't mind my messy hair.






That night right outside our hotel, lighted up tunnel (?) castle (?) So pretty !





Next morning, scenery from our room. The mountain there, tilt your head to the right, can you picture a baby's face ?

Clearer photo of it.




Where we stayed for the night, Mt. Usuzan.

First stop for the day, to see the bears ! But outside the bear ranch, there is an active volcano. See the photo below, there's still smoke emitting at the top.




Bears are soooo cute ~







Ha, at the rest stop while travelling to Hakodate.



Lunch for the day ! Sukiyaki...... again.

Had 4 milk icecream within my stay at Japan. :O But it sure was delicious !

Second stop for the day (?) At Quasi National Park in Hakodate.



Third stop, the church.



Took a cable car up Mount Hakodate.

View from cable car.

My brother and mum sure cant face flash.




View from the top of Mount Hakodate.



When to the Hot Spring that night. So shy. Hot spring almost killed me, 44 degree Celsius.



My photos are in a mess but who cares. Had snow crab, "hairy" crab and "huge" crab the next afternoon. Travelled 4 hours just to eat this, hell ! - I do not fancy crabs a lot -

At Otaru. See the 2 roads and the river beside it ? It was originally all river.




The river from the photo way above.



Thank god it was quite a high temperature. Previously and afterwards. It was mostly less than 5 degree Celsius. Thank god for the rain.






Coffee house which gives us the cup for free after drinking the coffee bought. There were different designs to choose from. So amazing.

Otaru Music Box Museum.




Had "bbq" for dinner. Best thing was the Kobe beef, it was the best beef ever eaten by me. But its price was sure beautiful too, SGD $180 for that big slice below.


Chef personally barbequed it for us.


Next day morning at the hotel we stayed in at Sapporo.



Breakfast. Though we are at Japan, we eat Western style breakfast.

Snowing heavily outside the hotel. Manage to capture some shots (:









First stop for the day, At some kind of temple.



Wishing well (?) More like praying for happiness, safety and well being.

Snow snow snow ~






Odori Park - history of the place and Japan. Inside, it is an office.

They sure manufacture many different types of.... Mineral Water !





Geese (?) Ducks (?)

Sapporo Beer Factory.







 Badge Collection.



Lunch at Ramen Shop. Chef preparing our meal. Thank god it wasn't the standing kind of shops we see on Japan hour. It has seats (:


Miso ramen and gyoza.


Small shop we ate at.


Second stop, snow biking. Hell fun !!







NHK Tower.

Shopping at Sapporo Underground Shooping Mall and Susukino Street.

Dinner at one of the restaurant cum bar place.



Went to the hot spring that night too !

Mum wore it the wrong way and she did not know and no one noticed it.


Next day's breakfast, pretty much the same old stuffs.






What you call an angel you built with your hand when you fail to do it with your body.

Heavy snow again !






Lunch after shopping at a mall with all branded stuffs.

So cool, they served your orders with this aeroplane thing instead of having the waitress to walk here and there.

Last day at Hokkaido, Japan. Had breakfast then went out to play in the snow again.



At the airport, ready to set off for Shanghai, China.


Doraemon world at the airport.


My favourite photo of allllllllll ~~~~~ :D


These things are yumz !



Lunch at this place at the airport, I know, the airport is huge okay !! Way bigger than Singapore's.



Did some shopping on souvenirs again.


In the plane towards Shanghai.

Don't even bother about the meals there. Those provided are super horrible. First stop, temple.... again.








Their kind of market. It's on the roadside !!!


Visited the silk factory.

Had crab for lunch again.

Shopping !! The lights are really pretty. Everything is golden !




Chicken on a stick, taste better than restaurant food, serious.

Starbucks, finally, after so long. China style Starbucks.

Watched a show here, really cool okay ! the girls are so flexible and the guys are so muscular.




Ta-da, bye China. Hello Singapore.


Did I mention that the sky goes dark at 4pm in Japan which literally look like it is 9pm in Singapore. At least we had the hot spring to keep us occupied after dinner at the hotel. China wasn't that bad, phew. China's toilet cleanliness sure changed a lot over the 5 years when I did not go to China. (: Anyway, I love their weather, Singapore is freaking hot !!!
