Korean Visas and Japanese Temples

Aaron and I had to venture to Fukouka, Japan to renew our Korean visas. While we were there, we were able to take in a few sites and have a few adventures including drinking beer we purchased at a vending machine!

Tallest wooden Buddha at 10 meters in Tocho-ji temple



Amazing Italian restaurant with a "unique Japanese" setting.



Kushida Jinja Temple



Daizafu, a ancient Japan capital of the province where almost the entire city is an archaeological site. We rented bikes and rode around the entire city. It was a gorgeous day made more perfect with a platter of sushi some warm saki and cold Asahi!

You'd never see this in the U.S.

Celebration of the first full moon of lunar New Year!

So the man lighting the fire was totally drunk on soju and some random man stopped us to watch the "show." The fire truck was completely blocked in and not connected to a water source! Oh yeah, a fire started below the man lighting the ball of flame and about a square meter burned before someone showed up with a fire extinguisher...Korean style baby!
