    I've been to Fukuoka only for 24 hours once and it was pouring rain. My friend at I hung out all afternoon at Canal City and ended up eating dinner at one of the yatai food stands that seem to be popular in Fukuoka. It was cold but the food stand had a roof and covers so the rain couldn't come in. We took the last two seats, the place was crammed. There was steam coming out of every pot and it smelled amazing. People started talking to us and we ended up drinking umeshu with strangers all evening.
    Only 24 hours with very bad weather and still Fukuoka is a very fond memory.

    I used to live in Fukuoka a long time ago for a year. We were stationed at the USAF Base which is now a public airport Itazuke. I learned to love Japan then and just what an entirely different planet we were on. Very nice people and we found our first giant glass fishing net ball on the beach after a large storm. It hadn't quite hit the beach when we spotted it and dad jumped in freezing water and brought it back. I still have it all these decades later. I learned to speak a little and we used to go into Fukuoka all the time. Then we moved to Tokyo a year later.

I spent 3 weeks touring around Kyushu. We bought a rail pass for Kyushu. It was a shame we didn’t have the money to hire a car. It’s definitely on my list of places, to go back to since I’m living in Korea now.

    The first time I went to Japan was 4 years ago, for a 2 week spring break embedded program with my uni. And we actually came to Fukuoka for the majority of our trip, and then headed up to Tokyo for our last 3 days. When I came back to Japan 2 years ago for a month, to celebrate graduating from uni, I definitely said I had to go back to Fukuoka because it became like my home away from home. So I made a week trip out of it. Had a day trip in Kyoto, 2 days in Osaka, and the rest in Fukuoka, and then took the shinkansen up to Tokyo and spent the remainder of the month exploring Tokyo--which I still didn't get to do everything or explore everything I wanted to. This was nice though, seeing Fukuoka again through someone else's eyes, I definitely need to go to that shrine next time I'm around.

I was able to buy some Adzuki Bean Mochi and also some Matcha Mochi and I love it! Its a different texture when you first try it. Like between Jello and chewing gum. They are probably a lot better when you buy them fresh but I still loved it. Thanks for opening up our pallets to the taste of Japan. Hope you do some more. Thank you and stay safe.
