Rishiri and Rebun Island Trip

hey all,

So Michi and I just got back from our trip to Rishiri and Rebun Islands. These are two islands far to the North. Apparently, they are as far North as you can go and still be considered in Japan.

So I finally figured out how to do a playlist on Youtube, so above there should be a playlist for our trip.

Pics are below.

Some very friendly crows that Michi insists are like the two of us

Some Eidelweiss

This is the toilet for hiking Mt. Rishiri. You carry the bag with you until you need it, then you get to take it with you when you've done your business.

Me at the top of Mt. Rishiri.
