Pictures from the trip! Enjoy!

At the Hell Valley
This is the only proper photo is could find. You couldn't see me in the rest of the photos cause i was so cold, i had to cover my face. Looked like a terrorist.


And that's the valley.



For dinner, each person had about 10 plates laid out in front of him. Rice. Miso soup. Tempura. Fish. Udon. Steam crap...So moral of the story. A Japanese dishwasher leads a sad life.


That guy "twisting" beside me. That's our tour guide.


Oh, i had to take a photo of this. You know japs have this steam egg thingy? And inside the steam egg, they have this green vegi lined up by the side of the bowl. I'm just wondering where they get all the time to line the green vegi on every steam egg.



Me and brother's failed creation. His eyes were suppose to be made of rocks i picked up lah. But they fell off.


It snowed heavily overnight and i thought the snow on the branches look nice. So i took a photo of it.


A active volcano? I forgot.


And we went to look at bears. I felt a little sad for the bears begging for food.br />

Lunch!! I like the stuff rice in squid dish.


This is the view of the star castle from the top. According to the tour guide, its shaped in a star so that when one wing of the castle is under attack, the other two wings of the castle by the side can come help defend the castle.


The tower i was in when i took the previous photo.


The street below the tower. See the trees? They are actually cherry blossom trees. No cherry blossoms yet. Temp have to rise to about 15C for the flowers to bloom. And the Japs have cables above the ground unlike us cause they have Earthquakes.


-The seafood market-
Seafood and odd fisherman


stall

Inu village. The home of the natives of Hokkiado.

At another angle.


My favourite place. lol. Its a shopping street in Sapporo.


Beer at the beer factory.


Toast








That's our purple coach. Our "coach captain" (aka bus driver but for the purpose of sounding respectful and professional we call him that) is Mr Kawano San. Can remember his name cause it sounds like "cute" in Jap.


They have nice drain covers.


NHK building. -0.4C


My brother went skiing. Ok. I'm lying.


:)


The clocktower. ( Note: As on the drain cover) The landmark of Sapporo. Something like Raffles in Singapore. It used to be a part of their university and it almost got burnt down in a fire.


odd tree. Thought the fruit (or whatever it is) looked like christmas decorations


and the bicycles under the odd tree.


Sapporo's equivalent of the Tokyo tower


The tower and the coach


Disneyland at KongKong!

I thought this person inside Mickey had a good job. Just stand and pose the whole day long.
