Experience of the stay
While watching the movie "Doraemon: Nobita's New Dinosaur" at home, my son said one thing after seeing the excavation experience scene at the beginning.
"I want to do this too!"
I had wanted to visit the Fukui Dinosaur Museum for a long time, so I decided, "Then let's go!" and made plans for the trip to Fukui.
I found a nice accommodation on Hafu, so I made a reservation.
When I checked the official website, the meals looked quite appealing... I called the hotel directly to add two elementary school children to sleep with us and informed that we wanted to include dinner and breakfast for everyone.
Elementary school children's accommodation fee: 9240 yen × 2 = 18480 yen
Dinner: Adults 9900 yen × 2 = 19800 yen, Children 6930 yen × 2 = 13860 yen
Breakfast: Adults 2200 yen × 2 = 4400 yen, Children 1540 yen × 2 = 3080 yen
Total additional for Hafu coins: 59620 yen.
Upon entering the hotel, as expected in the dinosaur kingdom of Fukui, we were welcomed by cute dinosaurs in the gravel.
At check-in, there was a service of snacks, drinks, and popcorn in the lobby, which immediately lifted our spirits.
The entire hotel had a nostalgic Showa era vibe, and it was very clean and comfortable.
There was a pond inside with koi swimming, and a bridge that looked great for taking photos.
The dinner buffet had a wide variety, and the chefs were lively, creating a very pleasant atmosphere.
While my child slurped soba, I quietly peeled crab.
After dinner, we reserved a ping-pong room (I think it was 500 yen?) and moved around, completely exhausting our energy.
The onsen was also beautiful, spacious, and very relaxing.
I was also happy that there was a foot bath.
The breakfast buffet had a lot of options and was delicious, and we really enjoyed it.
The children simply said that the onigiri was the best and kept asking for more.
At first, I thought that the amount I spent on Hafu coins was too high for what I was paying, but in the end, I was very satisfied, so it was all good.
Experiences during the trip
From Haneda, we first headed to Komatsu Airport in Ishikawa.
From there, we took a rental car to our long-awaited Fukui Dinosaur Museum.
On the first day, we slowly explored the museum, had lunch in the restaurant, and participated in the reserved fossil research experience.
The June experience included fossil excavation, Trex skull restoration, fossil cleaning, and CT fossil observation.
I was very satisfied to be able to use the coveted fossil cleaning tools (the ones that make a sound like a dentist's drill)!
The next day, we checked out of the hotel and headed back to the dinosaur museum again.
Finally, the outdoor fossil excavation experience that we had been eagerly anticipating.
The kids were talking about whether they could find Q and Mew from the aforementioned "Doraemon: Nobita's New Dinosaur" while searching for fossils.
Since I am more familiar with "Doraemon: Nobita's Dinosaur," I mentioned that I hoped to find Peesuke.
As a result, the children unearthed fossilized shells, and the adults found plant fossils.
Although we couldn't find dinosaurs, it was a very precious experience.
Until the time of our flight, we played outside in a park until we couldn't anymore.
There is a vast park and a mini amusement area around the museum, so we had plenty of fun.
It was a two-day trip in Fukui surrounded by dinosaurs.
I hope to visit again sometime.Get Extra Bonus Coins! Sign up with this user's referral code now!
