1000 and a station or a trip to Hokkaido

On the last weekend of March it was time again, I went on a trip! For, although unusual in Japan, yet I have got holiday! Together with Henning we wanted to try something else makes hardly a! (At least hardly any Japanese) We wanted the 青春 十八 切 符 (the "blue spring 18 tickets) to go 北海道 Hokkaido. The island north of the main island.
The ticket has the advantage that you can only paid 11 500 yen for 5 days and then change trains as often as you like! The big disadvantage is you can usually only drive the 普通 电车 "normality". And therefore, keep to ALL in small towns! But we thought we were young and needed the money (for other things ...) and have enough staying power.
The appeal of the trip was therefore the one to another island to come, take however much scenery and sights as possible!

For me the journey began again with the beloved, no more hateful night bus. I can not just sleep in the things! Completely at the end it should go well ... That'll be something! But I made it just like most Japanese, and slept only a little bit on the train. Well, when you sleep you get admittedly not soo much of the landscape, but that was at the moment is of secondary importance! ;-)
The first real stop we made in Fukushima 福岛 there we visited the 花 见 山 Hanamiyama. to be a mountain to admire the almost year-round blooms. We had hoped that the 桜 cherry blossom would be to enjoy here, already in full bloom, but it was unfortunately limited. Other trees, however, jumped into the breach and it was still worth the trip! Next stop was
仙台 Sendai. Here we wanted to stay and this course again in one of the most cost-famous, infamous Manga cafés! After a night's rest, which was interrupted only assume that I was asked by a member of my feet but not to make contact in the course, we took the first train to 松 岛 Matsushima, one of the three most beautiful views of Japan!
And it was really very nice! And I used the same opportunity and dabbled a bit around in the freezing cold Pacific! ;-)
The next goal now was 青森 Aomori. The problem was that no train, for our ticket was valid, there went there! So we searched on the internet (and because we were sitting on the train we had to take our phone!) after a reasonable possibility. This we found in a bus that took us there. Good for us, it was cheaper than the train and we came so early in Aomori, that we could translate that same evening after 函馆 Hakodate in Hokkaido!
If you ask a Japanese to Hokkaido, is the first (and sometimes the only) what ihmdazu incident: おいしい YUM! So we could recommend to us by our friendly taxi driver, which you could eat in the late evening. He recommended us a burger, which was really tasty! (One half with chicken and the other with shrimp!) At night then again at a local manga cafe spent the night (this time without interference!) and the next morning to 朝 市 morning market.
I never thought I could at 9 already マグロ 刺身 sashimi (raw tuna) and 蟹 Kani (cancer) to eat rice, but I say only: おいし いい いい and 美味い! Very tasty! Because both were so fresh that it was virtually lived yet! (They actually have cancer still alive borne past us in the kitchen ...)








went from Hakodate in it then in the "Quasi-National Park" 大沼 公园 Onumapark. A very beautiful lake scenery with a magnificent mountain that seemed to watch over the whole scene.
Back in Hakodate there for lunch then another local specialty 味噌 ラーマン Misoramen.








When we had rendered them, Hakodate and surroundings had to offer us any more (but probably, but we had to anyway ...), so we drove back to the ferry to Aomori 船.









There we were again in a Manga café to sleep, but near the station there seemed to be none, so we slept in a ... カプスルホテル!
Sure! (Achso should read capsule hotel ...)















we wanted to do anyway, since we had heard of its existence, so we have also done! Although many would alls may now claim this was not a proper capsule hotel, you had far too much space! Anyway, done! ;-)
well rested, it should now go way back. What should I do not understand is how other people have done it in 80 days around the world, because in 5 days from Kyoto to Hakodate and back is almost a miracle or めちゃくちゃ 無理! (They say so?) In any case, impossible! For now we set up 6 clock in the morning on a 18-hour horror Tripp towards Tokyo! This Tripp alone included 181 stations! The next day, it should be for me yet again 71 different stations or 9 hours in the train!

Conclusion: saved a lot (but still spent every day 10,000 yen)! Travel comfort to 0! Fun to infinity! ;-) Have seen a lot and ate well!
Would I do it again? Henning, perhaps, any other combination will be difficult ...! But it was a great experience all the time!
