Farm Bar "Food Baby" in Obihiro City !

by Kazu

My wife and I reserved a table for us in the Farm Bar "Food Baby" in Obihiro City and stepped in the bar on the second floor of the old building in downtown.

The starter was a variety of high quality veggies sourced locally around Obihiro Area.Grilled onion was so sweet as that produced in my hometown Kitami City.

The cheese was so nice to have grilled tomato and beef. The fried chicken called "Zangi" in Hokkaido was so juicy and tasty. Thank-you message for us was written on a small card.

Confectionery "Rokkatei" !

We dropped by the headquarters of confectionery "Rokkatei" in Obihiro City. We found the brand-new sweet that can be savored only in Obihiro area.

Raspberry-flavored cream cheese covered with white chocolate was sandwiched with crisp pie. Sorry, I forgot the name of the sweet.

It should be eaten up on the same day you bought. Next to the brand-new sweet is "Yukiya Konko". It is cheese cream white chocolate is sandwiched with crisp cookies. It is also so nice !

Remembering the scenery of the highland !

by Kazu

After jogging around the hillside of Mt. Tokachi-dake, the cold air blowing the slope from the peak was so comfortable to my body heating up again.

 The hot spring spa for males can be seen from outside. You can show your muscle body to the people, if you want.

The aroma of spruce and other kinds of pine trees were so nice and refreshing in the hot spring bath of "Hakuginsou".  Campers were still sleeping on that day.

The trace of typhoon !

by Kazu

Terrible damages were left after the typhoon passed by Hokkaido. I have to change my jogging course a little bit.

 Some aged big trees fell down with the strong wind of the typhoon.Those trunks of trees are still there. Hokkaido University started to take of some trees this morning.

But the priority is to take off the dangerous situation in some places where many people passes by. The inside of the tree trunk was empty. That is why the tree could not bear the strong winds. 

In the morning !

by Kazu

We had an enough rest and good sleep after trekking. Needless to say, bathing after the trekking ease the pain of our bodies and refreshed us so much.

Actually we smelled during and after trekking. So we had to take off the smell and the condensed sweat on our bodies.

I could get up early in the next morning as usual but the pace of jogging was comparatively slower with the pain of my thighs. I had to soak my body in the hot spring bath again.

We are back !

At the end of our trekking, so pretty flowers were welcoming us back  near the entrance of the trail to the peak of Mt. Tokachidake and Mt. Bieidake.

It was getting fine and bright colors of the sky appeared with the sunshine that gave us the power agaain.                                                                   

This is Hakuginsou we stayed. We were smelling our bodies. After the trekking for nine hours  , our bodiese seeking for nice hot spring spa
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        

Before sunset !

We had to hurry up a little bit because the dark cloud was getting closer to us and the ground.

 The weather on the highland changes swiftly and frequently. The smell of rainfall was filling up the atmosphere.

My wife's step was getting heavier and ,ore slowly. I might have to carry her to the lower world. Then, I found another kinds of beautiful flower on the ground.
