Cos they are mental expensive Curious. Personally I don't go round taking photos of things that are expensive. Perhaps I'll take a photo of my shaken form and see if it's interesting. if your shaken was a million yen then yeah, itd be pretty interesting to me. its probably normal to you, but for tons of people like me its pretty crazy an apple could cost 20x as much as it would cost at anywhere else. -

Ramen alley isn't all that.....better ramen places on Tanuki koji shopping street. TK1 has a great char shu ramen, another fave ramen shop is about kita 1 Nishi 1....called Kura thanks for the tips. im not really a foodie but i realise ramen alley would be a bit of a tourist trap, but had to go anyway. i will check those other places out for sure next time. -

yeah i was merely looking for an onsen to bathe and got quite the surprise. its 24hrs, im guessing its useful for business people who need a place to crash for a few hours and have a wash or ski bums who want luxury night in! -

Hit Sapporo Teine today. Not much snow but still found bit of powder around. Randomly found a Super Sento and decided to sleep here for the night. It has several onsens, a restaurant, hot stones, massage facilities, library, beds, lounges, kids areas. All for $8. -

so this is my first time in one of these super sento onsens. its perfect for me as i have nowhere to go but what about these other people? im sitting downstairs in the library, reading area and theres lots of single men reading comic books. are they trying to get away from the wife? why not just go home? -

Inspired by the movies and goz who has helped answer tons of my questions, I decided to tick another off the bucketlist and spend this season living in this Toyota bB. The first week I have been riding the resort at Rusutsu. Im on powder day 5 so far. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hTk_pDGzBa0&feature=youtu.be&noredirect=1
