2 people, 1 dog with a fj in 19 days

After 4714km we made it back to Vancouver…we didn’t do much planning but to drive along west coast until we hit San Francisco. The coastal cities are very very pretty and the food in napa valley was simply delicious. My first camping experience was also very pleasant and excited too haha

I really didn’t know where to start writing about this trip so I guess i will hold this off until I am back in jul.

Somebody had too much fun and gotta catch some zzZzz

Day 7 – time to say goodbye

Yet again we went to the fish market but beside indulging in our last sushi paradise experience we were determine to bring back the goodies. Ended up buying 3kg of king crab, 2 melon and a box of tri color asparagus. In time of mothers day we prepared 2 boxes of tummy snack for the moms but only my mom could enjoy it as it’s prohibited to send any type of food into Canada.

Day 6 – sapporo

Today we mainly stayed in sapporo and again we went to fish market for brunch. Then we headed to a little shop which I discovered while reading the ??camera magazine. The shop is all about film camera and they have a photo developing machine. Spent us$20 to develop a roll of film which it comes in a very interesting format.

But today major discovery is the little cafe in the same building. I love everything about it and I wish we have sth like this in Hk.

Later went to a huge stationery shop and went CRAZY in there. I think it’s way better than tokyu hand!! It’s called central and it has 4 storeys of arts and craft stuff!!! I got myself some stamp carving materials and some paper craft stuff.

Then we drove outside of the city and landed in the newly opened outlet. It was huge but i for some reasons don’t do well in outlet situation and ended up getting stuffs for my nephew only. But I did have a super yummy icecream.

And the highlight of the evening is the baseball game. Went to Sapporo dome to watch fighters vs lions. I love love love watching live sports. Thanks b for taking me to the game. But an unfortunate woman got hit by a baseball on her nose that nite and ended up leaving on a stretcher. I guess paying attention is the key when balls are flying around over 100km/hr.

After the game we went to susukino for the ramen street. Still very yummy! And lucky us we found some bating cage along the way so ended up doing some swingig ourselves.

What a day!
