Fukui Prefectural Dinosaur Museum When you enter and proceed for a while, there is a big tyrannosaurus in front of you! !! And there is movement and voice! It is a wonderful museum 😆 with many dinosaurs, models of Precambrian creatures, beautiful stones, etc.

I love the timing on this photo getting the wave crashing against the rocks just perfectly. I've never been to Fukui but I know that Oshima has that big red bridge and I want to go check that out. I'm assuming this is where it leads to, and if so, then I really want to give it a visit. I guess the island has a shrine as well that's an Important Cultural Property so that sounds like it'd be interesting to see as well. I didn't realize this was next to Tojinbo though, I want to see those massive jagged cliffs for myself. I've seen them in photos and it always looks really awesome but seeing it in person is always totally different. I imagine it'd be even more amazing!

It's getting colder and colder. However! When it gets cold, the taste of winter awaits! Next week, the ban on the classic winter crab will finally be lifted. Snow crabs are popular in Japan, but I love having female offspring even for snow crabs! Unlike males, they are completely small, but females have the most delicious eggs and uchiko, so if you can find them by traveling to the Japan sea side, please eat them!
