Japan - Sapporo

I took a trip in Japan from 9th of September to 19th of September. There's alot to cover so let me get to it:

I took a plane to Sapporo on the 9th of September, with a plan to come back to Tokyo on land and sea.

Let the pictures do the talking. Here's what my new Canon Powershot S5 is cabable of :)
Sapporo was a much bigger city than I thought, had a very nice and clean athmosphere in the central area.


Onitsuka Tiger - my favorite shoe brand :)



Nice park in the middle of Sapporo, forgot the name of course.


Girl doing bar-tender training in the park, Japanese seem to like to show of their skills by doing their hobbies in public places

And a few other pictures from Sapporo. (it's a flash slideshow so you wont see it if you are using an RSS feed reader)
The night pictures from high up are from Moiwa-yama, where i went on a ropeway.

Trip to Hokkaido and Northern Japan


After arriving to Japan I will go to a trip to Northern Japan starting from 9th of September.
I changed my plan so that I will take a plane from Tokyo to Sapporo and not the otherway around as I was planning before. So my route starts from Sapporo in Hokkaido.

I've too much spare time now so I made a small travel plan with google maps.
Google maps also now supports embedding.
