Hakodate Photos

Meet some of the friendly locals in Hakodate! Do you honestly blame Gary for hesitating to hold this thing? He insists I emphasise that he wasn't so much of a coward to refuse outright! Hmm. Oh, and you must remember that there were much larger crabs than this one around.
The view from Hakkodate peak over the pensinsular and town. You could be lazy and take the cable car up here, but its actually really nice to walk up like we did.

And after all the crab realted traumas, a nice way to relax in Hakodate is to use the foot spa in the centre of town. You just turn up and pop your feet in the steaming water. Really nice. I just hope no-one had vurrucas...
