Day 8

We spent Saturday in Wakkanai, and realized that we had run out of time. Since we wanted to attend a church, we would have to drive several hours to find one, then return to the area on Monday so that we could search for …gold. There is only one spirit-filled church around this area. We needed to drive down in the evening as much as possible and continue drive down tomorrow morning to attend the church in Monbetsu. We hit two camping grounds on the way to get a bungalow, but one is full and the other one does not have any. Finally we decided to spend in a onsen hotel in Esashi.

土曜日は稚内で時間を使い果たしてしまいました。明日は教会へ行きたいけど、この辺りで良い教会を見つけるのは難しい!でも月曜はこの付近で砂金堀もしたい。スピリットフィルドの教会が紋別にひとつあるのは前もって調べていましたが、もっと近くにも見つかることを期待しながら太平洋岸を南下し始めました。結局、紋別までいかなければ教会が無いことが解り、暗くなる前に出来るだけ走って、3ヵ所キャンプ場を当たってみましたが、バンガローは無く、枝幸という町で大きな温泉ホテルに泊まることにしました。
