Big migration

So this morning I left Tokyo, sniff, sniff but I will come back!!!

Today Herve arrived to Japan and we needed to go back to Fukuoka in order to go to South Korea tomorrow.
Well we were not the only one to have this idea.
Today is the 30th of December and this the day where everybody's is traveling back to their families!!
So we couldn't book the nozomi.
That's ok, we met at Shinagawa, the next station after Tokyo station, took an unreserved ticket and jump into the 1st Nozomi going to Hakata/Fukuoka.

Well jump was a bit difficult, we push to enter into the nozomi :-)
We managed to put the suitcases on the side and went into the middle of the wagon.

After one hour standing, some people got off, and we managed to have one seat. 1/2 an hour later the second one. And Since japanese people are not so warrior in this kind of situation it was not so difficult!!!

So it was very very full, and there is a nozomi every ten minutes and in each nozomi around 1000 people, can you imagine????
All Japan is moving.

So for me the trip was ok, not so much stress. Then finally back to Fukuoka, the city I know well!!!
Subway to Tenjin, and then hotel, very easy.
Put the suitcases and direction my Onsen!!! I was dreaming of that moment since a long time!!!

First we had a dinner (not lunch today, no time). French fries, fried pork and soup, おいちい !!!
And then 1,5 hour of pure pleasure, hot water and steam bath :-)

After all relax, back to the hotel, to have a good night sleep. Tomorrow we go to South Korea!!!!
