The Third Day in Hokkaido

Sep. 7

It was the third day of my trip in Hokkaido.

 

 

 

I waked up 5:20 am and went a 3km run.

It was very nice run along the beach line.

 

 

It was a breakfast at the hotel.

 

 

 

 

I was surprised at seeing so many dishes.

 

 

It was a day-off today.

We went sightseeing in Shakotan Peninsula.

 

 

 

We arrived at Shimanui Coast.

 

 

 

 

The color of sea was cobalt blue.

It is called “Shakotan Blue”.

 

 

 

 

We went down a cliff 100 meters high.

It was so hard job especially the return climbing.

 

 

Then we went back to Sapporo.

I left Fujii-san hear and went to Sapporo Fujino Winery.

 

 

I arrived at Sapporo Fujino Winery at the first time with no appointment.

 

 

 

 

Unfortunately, they are closed every Tuesday.

It was Tuesday today.

I couldn’t see the cellar and vineyards.

 

 

 

 

DOBON!

 

 

Then I went to Senmaru, which had a lot of rare Japan Wine.

 

 

 

 

Fortunately, I could buy many my favorite bottles which are difficult to find.

 

 

Finally, we went to Yunna-no-Yu, which is a nice Spa & Hotel in Yuna.

 

 

 

 

It was my 62th birthday today.

I was going to have a gorgeous dinner at some excellent restaurant in Sapporo by the first plan.

However, because of the state emergency in Sapporo, the wine service was prohibited there.

 

Then I came hear and had a nice dinner by the room service.

 

 

 

 

I enjoyed a very nice dinner with very fine Hokkaido wine.

 

 

 

 

I also enjoyed a private spa in the room.

 

 

I think I got a big success today.

Thank you so much!
