Off to Tokyo.
Trains
Leaving Hakodate
Too early in the morning! Taking the transfer train to the Shinkansen station at Shin Hakodate Hokuto.
Super Hokuto to Hakodate
It arrived eventually. On the Super Hokuto to Hakodate, a route I’ve done enough times.
Delayed at Minami-Chitose
Due to the earthquake last month our next train to Hakodate is running 40 minutes later than ticketed. We could have gone shopping at the outlet stores for longer!
Alex bought hot chicken and chips from a station vending machine. There’s a bakery vending machine as well!
Seascapes on the Super Ozora
Beautiful, if Stark, scenery. There were fishermen out in the grey sand.
Abashiri to Kawayu Onsen
My only train of the day! Everywhere else we drove, now I have to return to Kawayu Onsen for the night.
