Reverie of Thoughts

The agenda today was to sightsee and to view the fireworks.  We were suppose to go to Moerunuma Park (before going to Shiroikoibito Park) but since there is quite a distance to go to the park and equally hot, we decided to just go to another famous place in Sapporo, Hokkaido Jingu .  Tip: Do research on the places that are near to each other , so you can plan ahead.  We left the hotel around 9AM and reach about 10AM in Hokkaido Jingu (do be wary that at this time , there will be a lot of tourists coming to the temple as their first activity of the day.)  The chozuya, is where you need to wash your hands and mouth before entering the shrine.  and you will of course be greeted by smaller shrines too  Tip: Do be quick when taking a photo because there will be a lot of tourists coming in (and in dozens). Also, another tip, from all that walking , you can have a snack at Rokattei before heading back. They have grilled rice cakes (and they serve free tea)...
