Some of the sales staff at the shops here were curious about where we are from and asked us.

We got a little lost and came across this exit to a highway, which is unlike the ones in Msia or Australia

Another Apple store....there isn't even one in the whole of Australia. How backward is that?

Another burger to feed our hunger. Sometimes fastfood is the easiest and fastest way when one is on the go...

We will be heading to Niseko, for snowboarding tomorrow. We managed to get our snowboard boots and gloves and beanie at Spotaka, just before it closed for the day.
After unloading our purchases back at the hotel, we stumbled upon this local street side ramen stall while searching for Hozenji (a old street similar to Pontocho in Kyoto) in vain, and had dinner here.
