Finishing Japan- Day 5

Last day in Kyushu

Waking up in Beppu, Ron and I finished our onsen adventure by going to this little house in the middle of nowhere and having a kazoku-buro (family bath), which means a private onsen made for families and couples to take baths together. Ron now knows what his future bathroom will look like.



After our perfect soak, we made it back to the city and endured a 2 hour bus ride back to Fukuoka where a big bowl of Tonkotsu ramen was waiting for us.




Another couple hours and we were on the road to the Fukuoka airport and 8 pm last night, we arrived in the city of Naha , making our 2 year Japan excursion fully complete. We have now been to every large part of Japan; Hokkaido, Tohoku, Honshu, Western Honshu, Shikoku, Kyushu, and now Okinawa. Today we will lie on the beach with happy smiles on our face. Realizing how much we did in such a short time, it makes me happier to be able to finish this summer and head back and show everyone of the feat we accomplished.


Orion beer and Okinawa soba to celebrate our victory!
