After leaving Goryokaku. we took the tram back with the intention of going back to the hotel first to rest and head out again. However we took the wrong tram and it went to another way instead going back to our hotel, then we continued to explore the surrounding since we alighted at another sightseeing spot.
Hakodate was Japan's first city whose port was opened to foreign trade in 1854. Hence there were many historical buildings that were influenced by western countries.
After resting @ our hotel, we went out again and on our way, my dad and uncle decided to make a police report on my uncle loss of camera. He had lost it when we were out yesterday but assumed it was at the hotel, so when we returned, he checked and realised it was not in the room as well. I was very reluctant to accompany them to the police as 1) No idea where is the police station 2) my japanese is not good enough to converse in detail 3) Shota had called 8 taxi companies and help us reported loss of camera and none had found any camera (we highly suspected it was left in the cab). In the midst of my argument, the police station appeared right in front of us.
In the end, we spent 1 hour in the police box, with me speaking and calling out to Shota to explain to the police the document we required and went out without any police report in our hands. In order to claim from the travel insurance in Singapore, you need the very least police report. But according to law or police regulations, they were not allow to issue under documents unless the insurance companies contact them directly which then after they will only send it to the insurance company. So just take note this issue when you are travelling in Japan.
We dropped the idea of ever claiming from the company.
