The last day with the famous Kenji today. He was a funny old fellow and the least guide-like person I have ever come across. We’d go past these amazing sights and nothin’ but for hours at other times we’d hear in great detail about his karate exploits or his time on the military. Today at lunch time he had no clue where the restaurant was, one of the tour group google mapped it and guided us there for our final send off meal, & maaaan it was good!
He did get us here this morning to this temple which was of course up a bazillionty stairs.
The gardens were pretty
We also went to a porcelain factory which was interesting but the funnest bit was the side hustle they have going there, one of the people there makes bows & offers an archery experience - so fun
The day really picked up though when we got to Fukuoka. Look at this for an entry to the hotel!
SO pretty. AND even more exciting we found a Pandora thanks to some fancy googling on Sandy’s behalf, which was totally for my benefit. I may not be getting ruby on this tour but I certainly got spoilt with a gorgeous addition to my bracelet 💕
If that wasn’t excellent enough we found Christmas markets! I just love the Northern hemisphere in December, gluhwein is just the best isn’t it.
And the lights, all the cities go above and beyond making everything so pretty, it’s like a wonderland up here. Good old Aus can learn some lessons I reckon.
