We took a two hour hike through the Shiretoko National Park which is a World Natural Heritage Site. My mother did very well on the hike passing by five of the most gorgeous lakes you’d ever be lucky enough to see.
Art loved sleeping on the futon beds. He's hinted that sleeping on the floor might be better than getting King sized beds.
Breakfast was another work of art!
Here we are at the beginning of the Shiretoko National Park 5 lake trail. Each lake was more breathtaking than the last.
We met this lady on the trail dragging two pieces of luggage along with her. We could hardly believe it! She was going in the opposite direction from us so we couldn't help her.
Gorgeous lake!
We took a million photos!
And here's another!
We were staring out looking for deers when we turned around to see this huge buck crossing right in front of us.
He was as curious about us as we were of him.
Art and Dennis decided to climb up Mr. Oronko. Mom and I took a nap!
We were once again surprised to see a meal completely different from the night before and just as amazing. We discovered later that the crab alone (a whole one) costs $30.00!
What a family of serious hikers!
ReplyDeleteA buck! You saw a huge buck!! Wow.
Yeah, futon would be safer for KC, no falling off a high bed, no wooden corners.
Is that a scissors next to your meal?? Don't think I could manage those creepy crawly sea creatures.
Have fun. Hope you can keep up with your mother. :)
well you are tourists. I went into a grocery store and took photos of all the different kinds of vegetables. gorgeous sites, still looks cold. sleeping on the floor doesn't work for me cause I can't get up very easily without looking like an old lady. Don't know how the japanese do it.
ReplyDeleteKay, you are just like your brother. The majority of our last vacation's pics were of his meals! Must run in the family *<8^) I have no doubt that Art was able to make the hike, but Dennis? Please make sure he's taking his pills. I worry about him. Those lakes are gorgeous!!! Can't wait to see all the photos when you get home.
