Wish their marriage will be 长长久久!!!永浴爱河!!!My sis is glowing isn’t she?

Today should be a extremely popular date for people to get married due to its meaning + its easy to remember, Why not?!

Does it mean there would be same amount of ppl getting married next year on 11.11.11?

Back to my Japan post, after cherry plucking, we were brought to HERE!

IMG_1419 baby bears!

The older ones. They are very smart, all waiting for us to throw food at them and they will catch it with their mouth. Very entertaining indeed!

There are a lot of brown bears in Hokkaido and sometimes you may bump into them crossing the road! That’s what my tourguide Steven told us.

See? Warning for Bear Ahead!

After looking at the bears, we explored the area by venturing out a bit.

Wondering why there is a stand there? Its specially for you to take picture of the volcano behind! You would see this everywhere at the tourists spots, this is something that only Japanese would think of! If you look at the picture clearly, there is also date of the day you take picture so that you can remember it correctly the next time you see your picture~!

Honestly, I was scared to hold it!

Our tour package actually doesn’t include all these more expensive seafood, so we had to choose and pay for the seafood that we want!

Our steamed kani. It was heavenly! No doubt it was Fresh to the bits, the meat was soft and it melts in your mouth instantly!

See the ball hanging there? Its made from thousand years old tree skin. This is their auspicious item 吉祥物, if you say anything negative in the winery, the winery will not be affected by your words.
