you would know we have stayed at one of the three top hotels in Hokkaido.
It is Dormy Inn Premium OTARU.
Okay! Let's enjoy the breakfast in Otaru!!
▲ A great meal in the early morning
Oh my gosh!!! Plenty of fresh salmon roe in the buffet-style breakfast!
Oh!!! That is why it has been chosen as one of the top three hotels in Hokkaido!
▲ Comfortable morning in Otaru~
Even breakfast is Otaru style!
No wonder seafood dishes
and freshly made omelet by chef and
Hokkaido specialty WAFFLE, that is popular among guests!

Before returning to Sapporo,
we quite missed Otaru!!

It is summer now! Green plants and beautiful flowers.
The best healing place in Sapporo!
▲ Sapporo TV Tower's mascot "Tower's Daddy"
"Tower's Daddy" lives in the tower!

Look!!
This is the snack with the shape of "Tower's Daddy."
Can you see his mustache ???
You got it huh!!

According to the real TV Tower!
Oh!! That mustache should be the clock tower then!!
Okay!! Let's go up!

The most popular department store in Sapporo!
Looking and hanging around~
Wow!!!
It is a bright spot with a variety of small Hokkaido items!
How impressive!
▲ Gift
Hokkaido's beet, organic coconut oil, and a variety of flower oil, etc.
All are natural products
No worry at all, no matter what type of skin you are.
Let's get some for yourself as well as your friends and relatives.
▲ Lovely Hello Kitty's item for baby ~
It is said that the product was born because of the family member of the founder has been plagued by atopic dermatitis.
By chance, the founder discovered that Hokkaido sugar can improve the skin condition with amazing results,
so they made it to become today's "SUCRE."
Since it is a natural product!
No harm to baby.
So even the baby and baby's mothers feel free to use with no hesitation.
▲ Five kinds of flavor, for face and body use
There are five kinds of sugar scrub.
Lavender, rosemary, grapefruit, vanilla, and mint flavors.
Also, there are all kinds of different packaging.
It is good for both body and face!

face & body 200g 3, 240 yen (five kinds of flavor each)
▲ How satisfied!!
Everyone used would like to recommend to others as well!
Wow!! Magical Hokkaido sugar!!
▲ One of the three "gakkari" sightseeing spots in Japan
What is gakkari?
It means disappointing in Japanese.
It is a famous "Clock tower " in Hokkaido!
It is famous because it has been named the "disappointing" sightseeing spot!
Anyways,
let's have a memorial shot!!
★ Nothing wrong- Sapporo clock tower

A variety of vegetables and fruits, gifts from nature to this land in Hokkaido

Loved by most of the local people in Hokkaido.
Ice cream, which is made by corn and is available in convenience stores.
How was the taste?

Great!
"Hokkaido Government Building"
Compared to the clock tower,
you can find another kind of charm here!
Exotic Western-style building ane trees are on two sides.
