Day 15

Kuriyama -> Asahi-dake
Drove up into the centre of Hokkaido this morning amid thousands of red dragon flies. The land here is miles of storybook farmlands surrounded by high volcanic mountains. We visited a cheese factory, a photo gallery and my first ever mixed hot spring - in the mountains and with one pool so hot my feet still sting at the memory of it. Shared dinner at our cold mountain campsite tonight with a Swiss couple as we get ready to climb Hokkaido's highest peak tomorrow.
