Japan Day 4

The view from our room's window....

we can see Hell Valley from our room~

We went for a one more round of hot spring bath before our breakfast.

Check out time...
we left our luggage at the reception, and went out to the streets...
we bought sweet potato cake and of course... our daily dosage of ice cream!
here's a postbox!
Right infront of Hotel Dai-ichi.. GEYSER~
and the loud booming sound's really loud!
okie! start of our hike!
There so many places to explore!
We're gonna explore as many places as we can!
Starting point!
We're going to the Hell Valley first...
I think why Hell Valley's called 'Hell Valley' because of the smoke...
and it sure stinks of sulphur!
Tessen Pond~
We walked up-hill...
Stopping for a photo!
It's so hot! though its winter.. till Iris removed her stockings halfway through our hike *keke*
Okie.. we're nearing the next stop~
Ta Da~
Oyunuma~
Mt Hiyori.. an active volcano!
We're going down-hill now.. I collected 2 rocks from here!
Beware!
We're right at the foot of Mt. Hiyori!
Along the road side...
We're heading to the foot bath...
a mini "water-fall"~
we removed our boots and start soaking our feet! the water's warm.. not hot..

going nearer the "water-fall"...
other tourists came equipped with towels to wipe their feet, we used tissue :( okok... I littered.. Iris took a photo of the crime me committed :( guess wat? she littered too!
a walk back to our hotel... the hike took us about 3hours..
stopping along a front porch of a family.. so pretty!
Lurve this hotel!
we took a bus to Noboribetsu station.. bought a train ticket.. and we're heading towards Lake Toya station!
Took a bus from Lake Toya station to our hotel.. and luckily, our hotel is rather near the bus stop!
we changed into our yukata straight away! & explored Hotel Grand Toya abit...it's totally not GRAND at all.. so different from the pictures posted on the internet :( but... our dinner made it all worth while!
an Obasan came into our room and set up our dinner... yes.. right in our room!
just look at our dinner!
one big tub of rice!
now it's gone!

After dinner, we went out to buy ice cream(again)! and...went into another hotel to use their free internet..wahaha...
