Today I am going to take an night bus from Osaka to Hakata in Fukuoka It is 633km (393mile) long and takes about 11 hours It’s one week until Christmas, beautiful Christmas decorations and music everywhere! A skating rink in the middle of the city?

The bus station is about a 10-minute walk from Osaka Station That’s under the Umeda Sky Building, so it’s easy to find And many people are walking towards that building, so it is easy to reach if you follow them Illuminated Osaka is really beautiful Arrived There was also a big Christmas tree here

Many buses depart and arrive from here Powder room and lockers in the waiting room After the information announcement, we headed for the bus It’s a very clean bus Today I booked one of the three rows of seats There are only 8 independent seats in total The seats are spacious and relaxing

Lap blanket This is what it looks like from the back The best part is that you can close the curtains to give the feeling of a private room Attach curtains with magnets Now I don’t have to look at the back of the person’s head in front of me Footrest

This is what it looks like when I, 175cm (5’9″), sit down. There is enough space Table Movable headrest Departure from Osaka on time First, they pick up passengers from Universal Studios Japan There is power outlet next to the seat The seats with the curtains closed look like this from the outside

Arrive at Universal Studios Japan about 30 minutes after leaving Osaka “Please attention, bus will be moving” Next we will pick up passengers boarding from Kobe Lights out time About 40 minutes to Kobe by highway Good-bye Osaka, till we meet again… We arrived in Kobe

Now that all the passengers are here, we are heading to Fukuoka Announcements were made in English, Chinese, and Korean as well as Japanese Unfortunately, this bus is not equipped with a restroom But they explained that there would be bathroom break about every 3 hours Good. That’s a relief

Two hours after leaving Osaka, the first bathroom break Departure times are posted next to the driver’s seat Each break is about 15 minutes It’s late at night, so there’s very few people If there is a stamp, I will definitely stamp it as a souvenir of my trip Miki City, Hyogo Prefecture

The bus is dry inside and I would like to buy a drink Rich milk tea Cheers to our night bus Yum Where is our pink bus? Departure after confirming the number of passengers The speed limit is 100 km/h(62.14 mph), but this bus company drives very safely Second bathroom break

About 15 minutes break Hiroshima is famous for Kumano cosmetic brushes Third Christmas tree tonight for me I must be the only one who goes to the bathroom every time Most passengers are deeply asleep, unaware that the bus has stopped We’ve come a quite a long way

We came to the Kanmon Straits between Honshu and Kyushu Third bathroom break Again, a break of about 15 minutes There is a big bridge here called Kanmon Bridge But it’s too dark to see clearly Yes, Shimonoseki is famous for blowfish! Sashimi of blowfish Blowfish in ochazuke (rice with green tea) and miso soup

Rice bowl topped with blowfish There is also blowfish curry! I hope to come back here again sometime to eat blowfish! We arrived at our first destination, Kokura Station, on time And then depart for the final stop, Hakata It is raining and very cold with a temperature of 4 degrees Celsius (39.2F)

As we approached Hakata, I was very excited “Thank you for the ride. We have arrived at Hakata Bus Terminal” Yay! we made it! Thank you, drivers First I am going to JR Hakata Station, which is right next door Wow, it’s a really huge station!

First, I have breakfast in the restaurant area in the basement of the station Bread? A rice bowl?　No, I’d like to eat ramen in the morning Ramen named “Morning Ramen”! I’ll have this! Add Wood ear mushroom as toppings What a beautiful ramen! Soup is so clear Ahhh, SUPER Yum

I like the texture of wood ear mushroom Even on mornings when I don’t have much of an appetite, I can eat this Buy an IC card (SUGOCA) which is only sold in this area

This IC card is very convenient and can be used not only on trains but also at convenience stores and vending machines Yeah! I got it! There are 10 types of IC cards similar to this one in Japan My silly hobby of collecting all of these has begun NOW!

I’m going to Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine by bus There is one bus about every 15 minutes Reservations are not needed. Just buy a ticket and get in line On the way, they picked up passengers at Fukuoka Airport I wonder where that plane is going?　Korea? Taiwan? We arrived at Dazaifu in about 40 minutes

I’m glad it stopped raining This atmosphere is similar to Kyoto This was the busiest place on this street What a fancy Starbucks! I was impressed with the Starbucks in Kyoto, but this place is very nice too! I can’t take a well composed photo for instagram. It seems I have no talent.

Coffee’s getting cold, so I give up It’s a beautiful vermilion gate Unfortunately, the main hall is under renovation, but even the temporary hall has a cool roof I prayed for the safety of all YouTube viewers on their trip Omikuji is paper slip that tells your fortune and predictions about your future

Oh my God… “Suekichi” It is the bottom of a five-point scale Traveling : Beware of theft Lost item : Looking for it, but can’t find it Disease : Not a minor illness Wish: Your wish will not come true That’s life…

I bought a traffic safety charm because I don’t want to die while traveling This is Umegae mochi. It’s a Dazaifu’s traditional local specialty Sweet red beans filling wrapped in mochi I think I can eat 10 of them easily On the way back, I will take the train instead of the bus

It’s fun to ride a local train, right? I use “SUGOCA” IC card I bought earlier I love this retro color! What? I thought it would be a more slow and leisurely run, but it is very fast!　Lol Thanks bullet train And then I’ll transfer to the subway

I love the colors of this train too Today I stay at the capsule hotel “HEARTS” It is directly connected to the bus station and is very convenient Hotel, spa and restaurant on the second floor, bus waiting area on the first floor At check-in we receive a card key, locker key, and amenity items

It is nice to have a light meal while waiting for the bus Use the card key to enter the locker Amenities include bath towels, face towels, slippers, and toothbrushes Razor is 50 yen from a vending machine The rooms are very spacious, with a total of 62 capsule rooms for men only

This is my secret base tonight Power on Reading light Outlet and USB port Free Wi-Fi speed is fast enough Flashlight This is what a 175cm (5’9”) man looks like when he lies down I love these Thai pants I bought on my last trip to Thailand It is high enough to meditate

If you are a train lover this hotel will be the perfect place for you! Once the construction fence is gone, you will be able to see the trains much better Okay, I’m going to have dinner Hakata is famous for its Motsu-nabe (hot pot with beef or pork intestines and vegetables)

Of course, I’ve had motsu nabe before, but this is the first time eating it in the real Hakata! Ta-da! Cheers to Hakata with Strawberry Sour Each table has an IH cooking heater, which is nice for enjoying hot food forever! Ingredients include intestines, cabbage, chives, tofu, etc.

Now that it’s boiled, I’ll keep it warm Ohhhhhh! The Motsu is tender and crazy delicious! There is no gut stench at all And the miso-based soup is delicious This is, without a doubt, the best food in the world I ordered noodles I’ll clean the soup for the noodles

Let me say it again, this is the best food ever! Motsu nabe, strawberry sour, noodles, total 2,750 yen (19.31USD) Now I’m going to buy some souvenirs from Kyushu Of course, for myself… But there are so many things to choose from, I don’t know what to buy

I bought this on a previous ferry trip It was very good This is Hakata’s famous cod roe. It’s NOT human lips! OK, I’ll take strawberry flavored stick doughnut It was my first time in Hakata and it was a wonderful place

I was very satisfied with the Motsunabe, which was the purpose of my trip Next time I would like to try the Tonkotsu ramen! What I learned on this trip is that walking alone among the Christmas lights is somewhat lonely…
