Kyushu: Day One

May 10, 2008 02:15

Our first day in Kyushu is a bit of a misnomer, because Day One in Kyushu actually begins at 10 o'clock at night. Right after work, Annie and I took off across Shikoku in a race for the ferry. We were secretly determined to beat Steven, Nina, and Lisa to the port, however fell just short of the title even though we had an hour head start. It turns ( Read more... )

Looks awesome. How does this compare to Osaka? Also, did you meet these people in Japan?

I want to go to Japan. Sooner or later we will finalize the trip.

Kyushu > Osaka x 10 > Tokyo x 100000000000000

Besides, Osaka is a city while Kyushu is an entire island. There's much more to do.

Yes, these people are all ALTs on the JET program. Lisa, Nina, and Annie are from the States, Steven is Australian.

I've factored Kyushu into our trip already. We simply must go. How long do you plan on coming again? I'm going to start putting together a rough itinerary.

How's the bronchitis?

Really? Should I fly into kyushu then? :-p

I plan on coming for 2 weeks. I think that's a good amount of time to do everything, yes? I could come for longer, but then I risk running into unpaid leave. I was thinking of coming up late on a Fri and maybe leaving the Friday after next. My dates are pretty flexible. Late september, early october seems like a good time when not a whole lot is going on. I will almost definitely come after labor day (cheaper flights)

Nah, I don't think you can fly into Kyushu. Don't worry, we can totally get to Kyushu pretty easily. It'll be Osaka, Kyoto, Hiroshima, Kochi, then Kyushu.

Two weeks will be awesome. Could you maybe look into taking a flight on September 12th? The 15th and 23rd will be holidays for me so I can cut my vacation time to a minimum.

Let's talk more about it soon! <3

I probably could do that, based on prices. As long as it's after labor day, it should be a good deal.

So you still want me to fly into Osaka?
