Day Eight


Takoyaki in the hotel breakfast buffet. Sasuga Osaka...




The visit to the AKB Shop the day before had resulted in a change in decoration on the car... Iriyama was gone.




Spotted this pair of Itasha in highway Parking Area




Worst. Convenience Store. Ever. Terrible terrible selection. They had like 4 different drinks. Fuck "ISM, the highway style of ministop".




The big ticket item of the day was Shirakawa-go, a UNESCO World Heritage site village with homes build in the old style of thatched roofs.



It was nice strolling around the place but also hot as balls and I ate like 3 ice creams.






Some of the houses had museums in them, demonstrating tools and methods of the olden days




The traffic lights in Japan are usually horizontal, but in areas with heavy snowfall they mount them vertically. This was the first time I've seen vertical traffic lights in Japan.




Kan du vissla Johanna?




At the Service areas/Parking areas you can sometimes find limited release local Kit Kat flavors, such as this Red Bean Paste Sandwich flavor




We spent the night in Kanazawa
