Morning breakfast at the hotel. Most times when I am travelling, I prefer to have breakfast in the hotel. It's convenient, and I can eat while my travelling companion is spending hours in the toilet :P At Tokyo Stay Hotel, I love the amenities inside the room. Look at that beautiful white kettle! It's something that I would have loved for my own home but I always ended up buying something cheap and functional instead of aesthetic. The hotel actually came with a washing machine inside the room that has a washer and dryer too. It is an amazing place to stay!
Just for scale, this is how big my dorayaki was! I especially bough it because of the size. I wanted to feel like a child again eating such a huge pancake!
After breakfast, we took a walk through the connector of madness again to the more populated town area.
There were some nooks and cranny that looked interesting, but everything was closed as it was still too early when we set out to find the train station. Anyway, long story short, we made our way to the station to buy a combination tickets to Dazaifu, but was told that they don't sell those tickets anymore. We were told to go to another station to purchase the tickets. Luckily for us, we still have our 1 day bus pass, so we quickly made our way to the bigger station to get our tickets.
This is what the ticket looked like. I wanted this ticket because it came with return ride on the train, entrance tickets, as well as free snacks! all for just 1,000 Yen! Which is less than 10sgd at that time.
There is even discount coupon that came with it. It was fun to have! I love these local combination ticket and would always search for them whenever I am travelling by bus or train. Even though we hardly use any of the coupon, we did make use of one to visit the doll museum :)
Anyway, maybe I was still suffering from lack of sleep from previous day, but I found I didn't know how to navigate the train station! Lol. I couldn't read the signs, and I couldn't understand the announcements. But we managed to ask around, and managed to board the correct train. We had to change train along the way, and thank goodness the transit station was a lot more tourist friendly. It has been a while, what with covid and all, since I was back in Japan. After this trip, luckily my solo trip and the trip with my friend was a lot better.
See! English words!
The combination ticket was curtesy of Nishitetsu Company that runs the train and buses in Fukuoka area. Love the minty green and orange colour of the train!
Finally, we arrived at Dazaifu station. Problem was, so did every tourist in Fukuoka! -______-
