Dec 24th Silent Night
We left Kidzania and went shopping at Lalaport. I found that a large number of people went to Kidzania during the afternoon – maybe we were quite late in the morning so we didn’t see the long queue. I got an email from my sister and we would meet at Marui Building (0101 Department Store). We then went to Agnis b and surprisingly, there were some discounted merchandise. As I remembered, sale usually started after January 2nd and it was just late December at that time! The discounted items were not good though. I only bought a recycle bag and some accessories as gifts. After that, we went to H & M, museum and Burberry Blue Label. It was dinner time then. My kid was so tired so he slept in the car, though he didn’t sleep long. He kept crying whenever he woke up. We went back to hotel by cap. It cost us 2,700 Yen.

It was raining since 4p.m. I spent some time in the music box store while my sister tried to look for a cap. We then went to Otaru JR Station and booked a shuttle bus at 5p.m.. When we arrived, we tried the private hot springs. Sun was already set so the view was not very good. We had dinner in a French restaurant at 7:30p.m. and it was nice (especially the bread). Comments on this restaurant were not good on the internet, but in my opinion it was very nice. After that, we went to have a look at the outdoor hot springs. It was not very special so we chose to enjoy the one in our room. We watched TV and then went to bed after.

December 18
We went to Narita (then Hokkaido) by a JAL flight at 10:35am. As we went there with kids, we had the privilege to go through the immigration quicker. We even met Antony Leung and his family (and two maids too). We then did the domestic terminal check-in at 3:30pm, and went to Chitose at 6:40pm. The flight was delayed because there were too many flights. We went to Sapporo by JR at 9:15pm. It was already 10:00pm when we reached Gracery Hotel Sapporo. My eldest kid was with me by then so we didn’t visit the Noodle Street. We went to Lawson and bought some food instead. I didn’t see any snow in Sapporo and I really felt disappointed.
A small accident happened – my AIGLE Gore-tex shoes got broken! The next day, I went to Tomamu Resort. My sister brought an extra pair of shoes with her so she lent it to me! They even bought me another pair of fur boots in Sapporo the other day.

JAL flight-shaped telescope. We sat at the upper deck.

Aside from the International Street, two places in Okinawa are also worth visiting. The first one is Omoromachi, where you may go by tram. I focused on shopping so I didn’t take any photos.
You will see lots of famous brands once you get off the tram. After that, you’ll see San-A Naha Main Place. This is a large shopping mall with fashionable items for clothing and living. What’s more, you’ll find restaurants, theaters, famous cafes, etc. There are more than 70 stores.
We’re not allowed to take photos here, but I took one - Sanrio Gift Gate.

I seldom buy this in Hong Kong, but in Japan, that is not the case.

This post will show what I bought in Japan. It seems a bit too much. 
Actually it is more or less the same as my trip in 2005.

I like the banana cake (Tokyo). We needed to queue and buy it. The one at the right hand said is chocolate, I bought it at Sapporo.
