Lake Shikotsuko Visitor Center චාරිකා

Although it was pouring rain at our first stop, Lake Shikotsu, our tour guide Ella still carried out her responsibilities diligently. Even though her umbrella was almost blown inside out by the wind, she insisted on standing at a fixed spot to help us take photos, and her professional dedication is truly commendable. Later on, the weather gradually cleared up. From the Silo Observatory, we could see Lake Toya, Nakajima Island, and the surrounding mountain scenery all at once—it was a very beautiful view. The yogurt sold at the nearby souvenir shop was rich, unique, and quite delicious.
