The romantic city of Otaru. Home of the music box. Beautiful streets, architecture, and a canal down the middle of town. Delicious food. What's not to like about this town? We arrived around mid-morning, and the kids had a few hours to walk around, sight-see, shop, and eat snacks. Then we headed to a delicious ramen (Chinese noodles) shop, and finally ended the day with a look at the Hokkaido Development Museum.
We switched hotels, staying at a beautiful one right in Sapporo, right by Odori Park, at which they have winter illumination. The hotel is said to be one frequented by famous people when they are up there. Well, after we checked in (almost forgot, we got to eat Gengis Khan - barbecued lamb - for dinner), the students got to hang out at the park for a bit in the evening. Good times!
