Hello from Hokkaido! It has already been 10 days since I got here, I'm having the the best summer. This summer is cooler than usual too, 20-25°C (68-77°F). It's sooo nice! Here's what I've been up to so far. Enjoyed a relaxing onsen stay at this hotel in Abashiri (with a private in-room onsen) Found a delicious melon from a local supermarket just for 1,280 JPY (vs. a famous Furano melon: 4,000 JPY) Took my son to these amazing playgrounds Sushi x2, yakiniku, omakase dinner, etc... So sweet...
