This is the album of pictures I took during my trip to Hakodate.

Hakodate

The agenda of the day was to go home.

The Edo Road souvenir stores and restaurants at the fourth floor of the Tokyo International Airport International Terminal.


This was the best view I ever had of Mount Fuji, both from ground and from air.


A heavy thunder storm over Taipei Songshan airport meant we had to do a few circles over north Taiwan.


Photo Albums

The goals for this trip was to see the famous night view of Hakodate that I missed two years ago due to bad weather, and to try out the city center to city center flights between Taipei Songshan Airport to Tokyo International Airport. The journey to Tokyo was really smooth and I spent the time before boarding the flight to Hakodate at the airport’s observation deck.

The Picachu livery plane of All Nippon Airways (ANA) was really popular among children.


Japan Airlines’ Sky ECO special livery changes the normal red color on the vertical stabilizer to green.


After settled down at the hotel, I went to the observation deck at the summit of Mount Hakodate immediately. As the sky getting darker, people started coming to the observation deck both by buses and the cable car, and before I knew it, the observation deck was packed with people even at a normal Tuesday evening.

There were already many people even before sunset.
