Chapter 1384 - Hokkaido Trip (4th October - 12th October 2019) - Hakodate

Finally i have the time to update on my Hokkaido trip!
I am back to Singapore for a week and was busying with my work, replenish my energy and also to have quality time with my family.

Overall, Hokkaido was an enjyable trip but i would still prefer Tokyo! Hokkaido is more of a sight seeing destination and maybe am a person who love shopping therefore i can't find much enjoyment from this trip but okay, least i do have some quality time spend with the in laws and also an escape from all the hectic work!

So we visited Hokadate, Sapporo and Furano! Meaning we have stayed at 3 different hotels as each desitination is about 3-4 hours drive away from each destination. Weather was pretty cold as we encoutered the lowest degree at 10 degree while 16 degree was the highest that we have encountered. Shall let the pictures do the talkinig now.

This post will be focusing on Hokadate and i will update the rest in a separate post :)

Took Thai airway for the trip hence there was a transit at Thailand before landing at Chitose airport. Bought air ticket from Thai airway as we chanced upon the cheapest flight during our selection. Roughly about SGD500 for round trip! First meal on the plane!

Our breakfast on the plane before we land.

first thing we saw upon landing at the airport.

first group photo to kick start the journey yo!

saw these pastel tumbler at the starbucks. Am feeling kinda regret for not getting it back then. Aish.

First activity to kick start the day!

Basically is something like Hello Kitty land together with other Sanrio characters. We do have tons of fun in there! Back to childhood days yo.

Say hi to the shag girl here.

Lack of sleep. Lol

This was so beautiful!

We spent about an hour plus as there was too many iconic to take picture with.

settled our lunch at this place. Long Q but we Q for about 20 mins.

Service was not there as the guy who served us doesn't undestand our English hence he ordered everything x2 for us!

My prawn broth Ramen. Albeit the bad service but the food was good!

One of the morning market to visit when you are at Hokadate.

Squid catching

HubB went for it and he caught a kinda huge squid! HAHA

Their melon was extremely sweet!! Indulged a lot of melon for this trip till the extend i was kind sick of it. HAHAHA. Too much for me 😅

Muscat grapes. HubB is a great fans of grapes and he hunt down the whole market to for a better looking grapes.

The main agenda to visit the morning market.

eating the live crab!

It was kinda painful to hold on to the crab due to some sharp edges. I was so scared that the crab will struggle while holding onto tot it!

Noms ~

a group photo before we start devouring the crabbb.

It was really good! Tasty, sweet and juicy ~ If i am not wrong the crab cost about SGD200, go by weight!

visited Fort Goryokaku and tower.

their tickets never failed to amazed us with the different designs.
