The flights we took transit in Pudong, Shanghai. The red eye flights took a toll on all of us. We were tired and nauseous. Pudong to New Chitose is about 3 hours. We took a train to Otaru. Otaru is a small town. We spent 4 nights and rent a car to go to the farm for fruit picking. After fuit picking we drove along the seaside and imbibed the wonderful ocean view. Stopped at several old ports to take pictures.
The food is mostly seafood. So I have beers, coffee, peanuts and potato chips instead. I actually gained 2 kilos. The best hotel we stayed in was Ki Niseko in Kutchan. The hotel is right beside the ski lift and has wonderful view of the Yotei mountain.
Our last stop is Sapporo where we did a bit of shopping. Mostly buying cheese and snacks by B3.
Hokkaido seems a lot more expensive than Nagano and the exchange rate to yen has went up by 9% making everything a lot more expensive.
