Bye Kyoto, Hello Fukuoka

---

Today was a travel day. Robbie got up early and went to see Toji temple, which has the tallest pagoda in Japan, five stories tall (no pictures just yet since this is a quick post while we change at the hotel).　We departed our ryokan at 10 am and took the shinkansen (the super super duper fast train) to Fukouka across the southwestern portion of Honshu (the big island) to Kushyu where Fukouka is. (side note - Fukuoka is bidding for the 2016 summer olympics).

We will now be taking a quick train to where Sarah has been living to drop off some stuff, pick up her bag for china, and go to dinner with her friends. Back to Fukuoka tonight to go out (its Friday - duh) then off to Beijing China tomorrow. Our flight is at noon and we arrive at about 2pm. Exciting Exciting!

For those dedicated readers, if you can forward the link to those interested we would appreciate it!
