Breakfast at the ryokan. This place is so damn cosy, I could stay there endlessly

The staff are really generous and give us a lift to the nearest major station. This saves us an extra transit leg and a lot of time, we were so grateful for this!

On the way out we stopped to get a nice view over the area, we’re not that far from some of the old Winter Olympic venues

First shots on the Fuji Superia Premium 400. I dunno, I feel the like scan probably isn’t doing it justice. I forget what lens I used but this should’ve been a slam dunk for the camera – tonnes of light, speedy film, infinite depth of field from an aperture around f/5.6 or f/8, there’s no excuse to not be tack-sharp

It’s a while until our shinkansen departs, so there’s time to drop off our bags and get some lunch!

This is a much better way to remember which locker you picked

I mostly like Kobeya because of their cute uniforms, but the pastries are good too

Back at the hotel, I’m sorely tempted to buy a ridiculous and expensive pizza

Prawn bisque in a can, I just… don’t know
