| Monday, February 11, 2013 ◔ 2:42 PM // ✎ 0 comment(s) | ❝ Japan Trip 2013 ❞ | Finally getting down to doing my Japan post. This was a painstaking
process to ensure that photos are of good quality lol - uploading
onto Photobucket first, then uploading from there onto Blogger. If
anyone has any better suggestions pray share!
Went to Japan
from 30 January to 7 February. Would have stayed longer if not for my
most hated festival known as Chinese New Year. Went to Hokkaido,
consisting of Niseko, Kiroro and Otaru. This post will have many many
photos and as little words as possible :) please enjoy~
Niseko
|
Note: This was the BEST Teriyaki I have ever eaten (@ Bang at Grand Hirafu) |
KIRORO
|
Note: Definitely a MUST BUY if you ever go to Hokkaido |
OTARU
|
Note: Please concentrate on the beautiful cityscape behind the trees, not the fact that I screwed up in this photo HAHA |
|
Note: There are snowmen EVERYWHERE. Tried making one of my own but I failed :( |
|
Note: Mystery meat. Anyone wants to guess what it is? (Or tell me what it is) |
|
Note: Mr Wasabi's Sushi Bar! The the food below costs 2000 JPY in total. Which is about 25 SGD :O |
|
Note: Check out my awesome beer pouring skills |
|
Note: First time seeing this and it was GOOD. The Japanese omelette with rice inside. |
|
Note: The name card, in case anyone is interested. |
|
Note: This is supposedly a very very very old house |
|
Note: Prettiest hotel toilet EVER. |
|
Note: Cannot decide which of the above two night photos is nicer! Please advise :( |
|
|
|
Note: This is part one of the 8-course Ryokan dinner. The photos below are all from the dinner :) |
SAPPORO NEW CHITOSE INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT
|
Note: Royce Chocolate's Display Factory at the airport! |
|
Note: Amazing Cheese Tart! The Hokkaido people have an obsession with everything cheesy. Not an issue for a cheese lover like me though :D |
|
Note: Last meal in Japan - when in Japan, do like the Japanese do (with Bento Sets) |
|
Note: The NUMBER ONE drink that I cannot cannot absolutely cannot resist! |
THE END :) CONGRATULATIONS! YOU MADE IT THROUGH!
