A TRIP TO HOKKAIDO 1/2.

We went to Hokkaido for 3 day trip. I borrowed a rent-a-car at Shin-Chitose airport in Sapporo and returned it at Asahikawa airport in Asahikawa. Then we went to Jozankei area.



Hohei -Kyo gorge.

  4. また北海道!でもわかりますよ、何度行っても四季折々素敵でしょう。今回の道東への旅は夏の花と秋の紅葉が混じっている気がします。ホテルのまわりのキノコをみると小人達がいるように感じます。山紫水明の国でもありフェアリーランドでもあり、北海道は夢が膨らみますね。お写真も素敵です、特に池のが。

  28. So great that the rain didn't stop you and your amazing walks through such beautiful places! Amazing the sights: from the mountain gorge captured, then to the plain, fall foliage, imaginary smell of salvia, the pond, road under trees, a mix of all elements of nature! i really love this and I'm the same, even when is raining if I decide to walk, I walked...in one hand with the umbrella and the camera, in the other one..
    Well done! Grateful that you've shared them with us... Like always a pleasure to see your work!
