Day 8 - Fruit picking then heading to Otaru

Day 8, Lake Toya. Wednesday.

 

It was Cherry blossom season in Hokkaido, before we depart from Lake Toya, we went for fruits picking. 800 yen for adult, kids 400 yen. And then we try our best to eat whatever we can for at least 2000 yen here!

 

 

Ethan, Emmanuel so happy to be a one day farmer. Especially Ethan, enjoyed so much and he worked serious to pick the best cherry. Emmanuel just simply pick those place that he was reachable until we got to stop him to do so. After a while, he lost his interest as it was too hot and he said he wanted to sleep. Then he started to do a lot of funny face and fainted in the stroller.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We eat until we dropped. We have eaten the uncountable cherries, worth for 2000 yen. Get a little bit of sun burnt and melt in the sun. Then lost the way out from the cherry farm. Feel so tire but full of fun. Before we exit this big farm, everyone eat another mouth full of cherries. This ended our Lake Toya tour and with the uncountable cherries that can sustain us till the next year April, till the cherry bloom again.

 

 

 

After one tunnel and another tunnel, and another tunnel and

 

 

another tunnel and lot of tunnel..... Crossing lot of moutains, up hill down hill, then finally we come to the edge of the moutain and we saw a big dam. Then marked us for the journey and we almost reach Otaru again...

 

 

These boys shouted "echo...EEEEECHOOOOO....ECHO.... ECHO!!!!!"

Daddy : "AH! Maybe they will have a beer come out soon... Let's go!"

In a second, everyone run back to the car and shut the door! Scary....

 

 

Potato chips that make everyone enjoyed the journey~~~

 

We drove, we sang, we ate, kids slept. The hardworking Daddy kept up the best performance and brought us back to Otaru.

 

 

Sushi dinner and JOB WELL DONE to the Daddy! You have successfully conquered 30% of Hokkaido! Gan-Bai! We proud of you....

 

Burp~ Nice one. We ask for the bill, the waitress came and she stacked up the plate, then with one swung of her a little tag machinese on the plate from bottom up, she printed us the bill. Then we shouted "WAH......" what a hitech way to count the plate with a machine on hand. After she went off from our table, we quickly turn the plate and check it out how actually this can be done. Behind the plate it stick with a tag for scanning. "ohh.... hitech, hitech and time saving and accuracy!".
