If you're going to visit Hakodate there are four items that fall close to automatically into the must do category. We'd managed three of them the day before, but if we wanted to fit in the fourth we were going to have to be up and about around sparrow fart, and the appropriate layering of clothing was going to be a major issue. I'd nearly frozen on the way back from the alley full of eateries the night before and wasn't keen to repeat the experience.
We were off to the Morning Fish Markets, and I wasn't sure we were going to make it.
I've seen a fish market before, and, indeed, the Sydney version is something to behold, but in this case, on a crisp autumn morning since a picture is worthy a thousand words we might as well let the pictures do the talking.
