Today we went to some botanical gardens which were gorgeous. Our first experience of proper Japanese autumn. While Jamie was eating there was a very friendly and hungry crow staring at him the whole time, Japanese crows are very pretty and big.
We also went to the top of a tower in Odori park (central Sapporo) at sunset which was breathtaking. We then ended up in the local bar where we introduced peep show to the australian chef (which he downloaded straight away and watched while he cooked our food!), he absolutely loved it!! Then he started introducing it to a couple people as 'this new English comedy'. He makes great English food including a very good venison and blueberry pie. We were lucky as it was just made them from scratch (which I saw his assistant chef make as most of the kitchens are open to the venues so you can see everything they're doing) and the ingredients were sourced locally. YUM! Tomorrow is ladies day which is a day that foreigners Japanese wives go and have discount drinks and 'bitch about their husbands', I think I'll go and join them!
Ok, I'll just put up some pictures and let that be all. See my facebook profile for an edited video with a few clips from the day since this site is not letting me!
Goodnight from Sapporo!!
