Day 61 29 September Hokkaidō and the Sea of Japan

Today we had our first glimpse of Japan as we sail around the northern island of Hokkaido.

The misty mountains of the most northerly of Japan's islands. It looks foreboding but the seas were quite calm.

Today we saw a presentation on Japanese Ghosts and also on the Ainu people who are the indigenous people. The latter was frightening, as they did to the Ainu exactly what other colonial governments did to their indigenous peoples.  Horrible.
