Exploring Japan with Family: Part 3 in Hakodate and Sapporo
July 14th: This was the day we left Sendai to go to Hakodate! Sendai was very fun and I wish I got to spend more time here! I definitely want to come back, for the food, and more tohoku souvenirs…I was also desperately hunting for the Miyagi Kirby keychains, but they were nowhere to be…
