Ganso Hakata Mentaiju  After a good nights rest I allow myself to sleep in a little before heading out to explore Fukuoka. Fukuoka is pretty known for their mentaiko which is cod roe. So my first stop is a bit of "breakfast" at Ganso Hakata Mentaiju. This restaurant is fairly well regarded for this fare and getting there early I'm able to beat the rush. I order their "Han Men Sui" set. This...

I am embarking on another trip to Asia, this time I'll be starting in Fukuoka! I'll meet up with a few friends in Beppu and Osaka before heading to Taiwan to connect with more friends!

It's time to wrap up our sibling trip to Vietnam and Japan. Being able to travel with The Sister is a blessing that I know not everyone is able to do. So I'm very thankful that even into our adult years we still have the chance for it and to adventure and enjoy it as much as we did.  I thought it would be great to give the Sister an opportunity to share some of her thoughts on this trip. Below...

Last Day in Japan

We're leaving Sapporo today and flying to Tokyo for our final day in Japan before flying home. We have a morning flight so we need to start making our way to the airport. One of the cool things about Japanese hotels are the amenities. One of these things are the single use coffees that they have. It's like a one stop instant coffee kit and both the Sister and I think its super cool! Airdo...
