Sunday, September 3, Queblik, Fukuoka JAPAN
We left Okayama at 7:30 and drove to Fukuoka after breakfast at the hotel.
We had a short break at Fukuyama Service area. The entrance is Japanese style.
I saw Finding Nemo fish there.
Tomato and Cheese Okonomiyaki pancake?! Is it popular in Hiroshima?
りさちゃんのシートにはホテルの朝食会場からのおにぎりがころりん。おにぎりは、パワーの源やね。なるちゃんが「山下清みたいやな」って言うてはった。芦屋雁之助の名演を思い出します。りさちゃんは裸の大将知ってるのかな。
There were rice balls from hotel breakfast on Risa’s sheet. Rice balls can be energy for her.
Took a picture with rice balls.
We rested at Kanmon channel between Honshu island and Kyushu island.
Cable of the bridge is so thick.
Risa, Naru and me
We crossed the bridge and landed in Kyushu island. Then drove a while to Fukuoka city.
昼食は、福岡のゆめタウンでおろしぶっかけうどんと鰯フライ。細麺で麺の量がとても多かったです。
We had lunch at a food court of a shopping mall in Fukuoka. I ate Udon noodles and deep fried sardine. Noodles were thin and the portion was so big.
This classical building is Fukuoka City literature center. I took a picture from our car.
