hokkaido day 3 ...

  ahhh day 3 woke at 7 am ... i think japanese can't cook western stuff ... totally yucks ... doesn't taste good at all ... some pics of breakfast and hotel room ...
saw this beside the bed ... so no smoking while walking and bed ? ... what bed ? ...
the background is not a picture ... its the view from the hotel room ... nice hor ...

breakfast with snoopy plate again ... as you can see ... its salmon again ...
the hotel from outside ...

bought this gum from 7 11 and they provide pieces of paper for you to dispose your gum ... isn't that innovative and wonderful ? ... now you have no reason to spit it everywhere ...
so after that we went to bear ranch ... of course to see bears ... the bears are sooo cute ... they will do lots of actions just to get your attention and food of course ... below are the pics ... oh and there's a life volcano just opposite the bear ranch ... what are they people thinking ?!?!?!?! ... if it erupts the bear how ? ...

hahaha like playing slide ...
the live volcano ... can see its harden lava ...

emoing one corner ...
i like the ice cream ... taste realllllllly good ...

so after seeing bears we went to sit a boat that goes around lake toya ... a lake that never freeze because its surrounded by volcanic activity ... here are some scenery that i took ...

erm ... cam whore !!!



whose palace ? ...

after that boat ride we went to a live volcanic area ... called hell valley or something ... and saw this at the entrance of it ...
 
the toilet ... see the signs so cute lol ...

the sulphur spell is very pungent ...

family pic ...

chains so that the tractor won't slip on snow ...

so after that we went to have lunch ... lunch is some steamboat that we have to cook and finish in 30 mins ... wth ...  rush for time >< ...
salted fish lol ...

SEE SALMON AGAIN !!! ...

and the fire is not strong ... takes very long to boil ...

family pic again ...

at the lunch place i saw live crabs that they are selling ... so took some pics ... first up queen crab ...

hairy crab ... looks cute hor ...

queen again ...

and finally the king crab ... its thorns are not that sharp ... but it still can hurt ...

we proceed on to a place where you can rent snow mobiles to go up some mountain ... we did not cause its like freaking expensive lah ... its 180 SGD for a 2 seater mobile ... and its for only 1 hour lor ... so we just stay around and play snow do stupid things lol ...

lying on the snow actually felt good ...

saw this in the toilet ... damn cute ... they should put this in all singapore toilets !!! ... hahahaha damn funny ...

after that we went for dinner ... hokkaido crab dinner !!! ... free flow of crabs ... let you eat until you die ... the crabs are not as salty as kuishin bo's hokkaido crab ... and kuishin bo only gives queen crab ... the king crab is real big ... much better tasting than sg ones ...
  
oh and they provide steamboat too which i didn't eat cause too busy eating the crab ... oh and tried sake ... 2 small cups ... my view is that its the same as liquor but it taste better ... don't have that yuck taste ... eventhough i'm not a drinker but can taste the difference ...

nice hor ? ... i made it :) ... so romantic :X ...

then after dinner tour guide brought us to their orchard road ... which is quite deserted -_- ... cause shops close at 8pm !!! NO LIFE !!! ... took some pics on the way there ...
ghostly image O.o ... anyone want to inteprete ? ...

bed of flowers covered in snow ...
 
you can see the road is covered with ice ... its slippery ... but cars still can move ...

the shopping district ...

they had i think 7 or 9 of the small alleys ...

more ghostly images ...

temperature check ... -5.3 ...
 
so after that we went to hotel and stay for the night ... forgot take pics of the hotel room ... but its still okay bah ...
