# Recalled the last night
Open-air hot spring bath in Otaru Dormy Inn Premium Hotel.
How relaxing!
You know what?
Most of the shops are closed after 17:00 in Otaru.
So what to do after that?
You might choose to take a relaxing bath at the hotel
or
visit the canal and enjoy this beautiful scene!
Otaru is closed to the New Chitose Airport too!!!
How convenient!
# Recalled the last day

Kept giving us different impression in different seasons and different time.
No wonder it attracted many photographers to come to take a perfect shot!
Just thinking to develop this shipping canal in the past,
now it has become a beautiful sightseeing spots!!!
Awesome!!!
# On the way to the airport
Although we don't have enough time to visit Biei and Furano in this trip,
we would like to provide you some useful information!
On the way from Sapporo to New Chitose Airport
We found a good place to be able to enjoy the nature of Hokkaido!
Thanks for the our local Hokkaido's friends for the accompany all the time these days.
And here is his recommendation!!
So-called "Take-ana"
By the way,
our friend's name is
Kazutoshi Takeishi ^^
So, "Take-ana" means Mr. Takeishi's recommended spot!
He was born and grown in Hokkaido.
In order to spread the charm f Hokkaido,
he started photography!
Most weekends, he'd like to drive to every corner of Hokkaido
to take all the beautiful photos and upload to SNS.
Besides,
it is so sad that sharing place was limited until now!
If you are interested, feel free to check out his facebook!!!
