Travel Tips from people who've been to Otaru
a place where vast amounts of elderly folk reside on the steep slippery slopes a rather bad place to let them live and in 5the tow vast amouts of shops selling wind up clocks ad toys, the whole place is just full of wind up stuff. which can eventually make ur teeth crack, thats when u need a ice cream. the stragest ice cream shop in the world i image many many kinds and no one has been shy or held back on the varieties available, crab, nato, tea, blueberry, herring etc... then when your feeling green with ggrossed outness go and have a cake in this great big wooden barn that is almost completely dark with candled chandelers they sell huge chouse cakes that when u pierce are full of cream and u sit on big beer barrels and eat them in almost complete darkness, maybe there is some shame i gorging on huge great cakes and people what to be anonimous??? its hard to tell. anothe place for dinner next to the port a huge palace in a wearhouse where all the girls dress as vintage farytail princes delivering kegs of beer, the food was pasta and the band fascinatling. a trupe of folks playig o home make noise boxxs and hoover pipes attached to key boards with a full moon silouhetted behind, aother ice place is a fish resteraunt in a woode builbing hanging over the sea edge little private rooms with big windows to marvel the sea.

Famous for glass, perhaps you should buy some.  There's some bloody nice work over there.  Adds up quickly though if you buy a few, so watch what you get.  The best route is to walk from the station in one direction on the shops road and then come back on the same one, so you can check them all out and then perhaps make your decisions on the first half on the way back.
