Return to Chitose
Sapporo Beer Brewery is now located in Chitose along with other breweries that get their water from the clear Chitose River.
Where we went for dinner. Another brewery using the sparkling clear water of the Chitose River. Sure has changed.
After a long bus ride and before eating it's time to go......Modern Japanese Toilet.
Hey guys!!! Remember the hole in the floor, it's been modernized and the ladies don't have to sit on that nasty toilet seat, just squat.
Ghenghis Khan (Mongolian Beef Barbeque) and Kirin Beer, couldn't get better.
Cooking up a storm.
