The morning of mom's birthday was spent doing what mom loves best...shopping. We went through the floors of the train station for a couple hours. Now, in our American minds, a train station wouldn't seem like much for shopping. But in Japan, that's usually where the best shops are. The station of Sapporo is built like a maze and I was so thankful to find the exit just as we needed to catch up with the guys.
Noboribetsu
To break apart a five hour train ride to Hakodate, we stopped off at Noboribetsu that has the best onsen in Hokkaido. How could we say no? The boys went to the cream of the crop Onsen Hotels while mom and I looked through their shopping streets. It was a necessary rest that got us through the other three hours to our next destination.
Hakodate
To top off the trip, we ended our night in Hakodate that boasts one of the most beautiful nightviews. And they weren’t joking. Pictures can't even catch a bit of what we saw. Not to mention there was also a gigantic full moon that night.
