Otaru
12. september 2018, Japan ⋅ ☀️ 12 °C
This small town on the coast is famous for its’ seafood, historic stone buildings and a very scenic canal. We really enjoyed our brief time here walking along the canal and a pretty path along the old railway line, drinking local beer and sake, and admiring the beautiful, old buildings that lined the quaint streets and alleys. Glass making is a local specialty and a very good museum highlighted some of the world’s best glass making traditions, including an amazing display of Tiffany glass (which we weren’t allowed to photograph, unfortunately) displayed in an impressive old, stone bank.Les mer

The Famous Otaru Canal
20. mai 2016, Japan ⋅ 🌙 16 °C
Today we took in more of Japan's west coast, we headed up as far as Shakotan and then worked our way back to Otaru which is famous for its canal & glass art. Lots of tunnels along the way and still quite a bit of snow on the peaks. Also still very warm, it was 26 degrees mid afternoon. Janet's elusive search for 'special' Japanese socks has also finally been realised. Tomorrow we move location and our accommodation as we are staying in a Ryokan for Janet's birthday. Will update you WiFi permitting tomorrow.Les mer

Otaru
30. mars 2019, Japan ⋅ ⛅ 3 °C
Otaru est une ville touristique à 40min environ de Sapporo. Ce port était autrefois appelé le "Wall Street du nord" et comprend en plus de son jolie canal de nombreux établissements bancaire construit dans un style occidental. On y retrouve principalement des magasins de verres, de boîte à musique et des pâtisseries! Nous avons donc déambulé dans les rues par un beau soleil, goûtant des spécialités et récupérant des souvenirs. Nous avons aussi visité une ancienne banque avec une intéressante exposition sur la modernisation du système bancaire au Japon entre 1880 et 1950.Les mer

We travelled from Lake Toyako to Otaru today. We found this place called Otaru Asari Classe Hotel, which is located in the hills about 30 mins bus ride from Otaru Station on a bus. This place must be pretty busy in winter for skiing.
Otaru is a port city and feels very different to Lake Toyako.

Some pics from Otaru. I liked what someone did with the climber plants.

Received an email about a job interview today.

This place where we are staying at has an outside bath. I had a bath outside in the soft rain. So very nice. For dinner Jeff and I ate delicious sushi. I ate sea urchin for the first time ever. It was nice but I still don't understand why it's such a big deal. Jeff had nice sake.

Day 2 in Otaru. Today we had a 'home day'. We did some laundry, went to a stretch class at the hotel (which was pretty weird), spent some time at the gym, bath and at a restaurant in the hotel. Spent a lazy but a nice day. We both read quite a bit today.Les mer

The ship docked this morning in our first Japanese port, Otaru, in Hokkaido. There were several people on the dock welcoming us for our overnight stay.
