[Just walk] Mashike Town, Hokkaido. Terminal station at the northern end.

Speaking of Mashike Town, beautiful sunsets, abandoned railway tracks, abandoned stations, and filming locations for the movie “駅” (eki) ~Station~.
And the boat song sung by Aki Yashiro.
Very good place.

But I was the only tourist.
The potential here is high.
Even in summer, the temperature is 25 degrees, and the sea breeze is blowing, making it cool.
It is 16 km from Rumoi city, so if you use a rental bicycle, it will take 1 hour. 30 minutes if the bus leaves for 1 hour. Hiking trails are also set.
It is highly recommended now that there are few tourists.

Sea shanty

I prefer lukewarm sake
I prefer toasted squid as appetizer
I prefer silent women
I prefer dim lights If I drink calmly Only memories pass through
If I spill tears
I sing a sea shanty

I will make the seagulls drink hard
So that I can stay with my girl in bed
Until late in the morning

I prefer not having decorations in the store
I prefer the harbor to be seen from my window
I prefer not having popular songs
I prefer the foghorn to blow sometimes
If I drink gradually My heart sobs
If I think of that time and that girl I sing a sea shanty

If I drink little by little Lingering affections will return to my chest
If the night grows lonely
I sing a sea shanty

Rururu…
