Hokkaido pics!
I promised long time ago that I'd post these pictures, but haven't got round to doing them, so I figured that today'll be a good time to look at some lovely scenes from Hokkaido! This time I'm posting lots of mountain pictures. Next time it'll be the flowers!
We went during June, but the ideal time to go to Hokkaido is actually July, when the flowers bloom. xD The pictures below are of the hot springs at Noboribetsu, where we stayed for one night in a ryokan (I remember having such a friggin' big headache on that night that I couldn't drag myself to the springs) and of Showa Shinzan, a dormant volcano, if I'm not wrong.
Natural hot springs at Noboribetsu!
A tiny shrine. The Japanese worship almost everything, even hot springs.
Water with iron in it. This spring boils and cools at random.
Even the toilets are decorated with the Red and Blue demons. Red for females, blue for males.
Dinner at the ryokan. :D
Showa Shinzan, unless I'm greatly mistaken.
あの時はまだ桜が咲く季節です。
Lots of pine plants there.
It was really cold on the mountain. D: We thought it was going to be just fine so we didn't wear a lot of clothes, but luckily we brought some big coats.
I'll post the pictures of the flowers and stuff we saw at Tomita Farm tomorrow, I think. :D
Oh, and I forgot to say: Please help me click my dragons! I posted them up yesterday, and just one click a day will help them greatly. They had soft shell disease yesterday so I'm afraid they haven't got enough clicks. Thanks a lot! :D
