Fukuoka Nights
After I left Takamatsu, I headed straight to Fukuoka. I was excited as I was hoping to meet with my friends from last time.
Unfortunately, everyone was busy. Even my friends in Kumamoto were busy (one of them was in the hospital for being sick).
Even though I was crushed, I took the time to explore Fukuoka on foot. I walked to Canal City and checked out Kawabata Shopping arcade.
I walked a few blocks to JR Hakata station. In all honesty, I was blown away how huge Hakata station. I’ve only seen it from the inside mainly, but coming from the outside.. how it is huge. I was talking with Mitch (Showa Elite) and I trying to see if we can schedule something with Misaki-san and others… but it didn’t work out.
So I continued exploring.
Having missed a religious site in Kyoto, I did visit a Shinto Shrine here in Fukuoka.
Reisen Crane Shrine and Kushida Shrine Shinmon
It was night time, but it was a Friday night, people were out having a good time and the food stalls were packed!
I walked around til about 230am. I really loved exploring Fukuoka. I just love this place!
