The detour on the way back is a wild buffalo.
About 50 of them eat grass in nature.

He doesn’t even look at me when I call out.
Personal travel is good because you can
go anywhere you like.

You can enjoy a 360-degree view of Pillar Mountain (387m)
Island behind the town.

The harsh winter is just around the corner.

If you are in Japan, immediately catch
a bucket and take it home.
Thanks to the detour,
it took twice as long to arrive at the winery.

Immediately tasting, I ate about 5 kinds,
but mixed berries and salmonberries are good.
Blueberries are sweet so no thank you.

The wines that you can taste in the area are
exceptional in their climate and the taste in nature. 

The blessings of nature have been repeated since ancient times.
 I've never seen so many fish in the fishing grounds I've visited all over the world. 

It is regrettable that I didn't bring my favorite rod.

Regulations on fishermen are strict in Alaska.
It is decided that each person can have up to two animals a day.

It is also a rule to release fish that are caught not by the mouth.

 The fisherman follows the rules even though he doesn't need a caretaker.

釣って持って帰りまっせ

"How many salmon are swimming?"

"I don't understand because it's coming up one after another"

I'm impressed with the ridiculous conversation, "That's right."

The camera is looking for salmon that
looks more delicious than beautiful salmon.

The life of a salmon ends here.

The silvery scales will soon turn gray and become
food for small fish, returning to nature.
Next year, new salmon will come up again.

A rare blueberry found at a liquor shop.

I came to the outskirts of the Island to visit a salmonberry winery.

Get off at all the rivers on the way.
This is to take a picture of salmon coming up the river in a line.

All the black strips are salmon.
I'm surprised at every river

 The transition of the seasons in the far north deepens each color, and it seems that the autumn leaves are very beautiful for a while.

"I want to come in September next time."

 The winter of Kodiak is where the king crab comes into play.
Most of them are also exported to Japan.

 Island wine I bought as a souvenir and silver salmon caught in the sea.
I can't wait for the day when I pile up glasses with my friends.
