Last weekend

Was a good weekend. The weather gods smiled benignly upon us and we got over to Lake Toya for our first barbecue of the year.
And nobody got immolated!
Though we burnt and chomped our way through a fair bit of Tokachi pork.
Which we then followed with some locally made whipped ice cream (or 'soft cream' as they term it here).
For Daddy all this was fuel for the ride on the bike there and back, all those calories long gone by the time I finally rolled home. For Sanae and Cian it was, ahem, fat which had firmly adhered to various arses by the time they drove home.
