On through Hokkaido, from the spa town of Noboribetsu to the Ainu village of Nibutani. Very wet, very boring riding to be honest. Flat and never ending industrial concrete. I arrived at the guesthouse soaked through.

Dr Munro
The home of Dr Munro, an Edinburgh doctor who came to live in Nibutani, the last centre of Ainu culture, where he gave free medical treatment and recorded and photographed the Ainu way of life. It is to him that we owe much of our knowledge of Ainu culture.
