(2 and half hour journey)<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">After exiting from the arrival hall of Fukuoka International Airport, we could see the Bus Counter. Original plan was to take the shuttle bus from Fukuoka International Airport to Fukuoka Domestic Airport to take the subway to Hakata Station to purchase Northern Kyushu 3 day pass(will explain about the pass in later posts) and then take the Shinkansen from Hakata Station to Nagasaki Station (need change 2 trains) - total journey would be 2 hours including the subway, shuttle bus etc. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">This option seems too chaotic especially for first timer visiting Fukuoka.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKIiQISMLvXVWIaJTT66s0N5dlxYbeav32mrkdlPwH9gXzOkmHIJ0_Rkh56b992U7R526yQwuW2JXOpvlokJg_MTZ4QMGFb19pd0oWLA2KDLg1kEw25kUIBWV-458Y5ZjX2qIQ8FfLcno8xAYLv23vXAVVOmleoMkMYb6X5qbhhc5ObMZk69oS/s5184/IMG_2768.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3888" data-original-width="5184" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKIiQISMLvXVWIaJTT66s0N5dlxYbeav32mrkdlPwH9gXzOkmHIJ0_Rkh56b992U7R526yQwuW2JXOpvlokJg_MTZ4QMGFb19pd0oWLA2KDLg1kEw25kUIBWV-458Y5ZjX2qIQ8FfLcno8xAYLv23vXAVVOmleoMkMYb6X5qbhhc5ObMZk69oS/s320/IMG_2768.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">So we decided the next thing to do was take the bus from Fukuoka International Airport all the way to Nagasaki (there's few stops in between). No need to change bus etc. Just leave our luggage in the bus compartment and we just take nap in the bus from Fukuoka Aiport all the way to Nagasaki. The whole journey will be 2 and half hour and cost half of what we would pay to take the Shinkansen.</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZprdo0RLle2Zj7D1U8tsBM5W1h3HSDIrpf7W_dzOWK5RWX7p_lba29LR8PmfyRFi4bqSMlk0ltBuRPRQpbzRRZeGshMx8aWd9x-oJJxCcqJVi58XfFSzh7HjSPS4AA0GiWCmHsXe2j0LViOlt7ffArb_DnwUrgq49n7aMYQ7eIrOmfpiWoIzT/s5184/IMG_2771.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3888" data-original-width="5184" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZprdo0RLle2Zj7D1U8tsBM5W1h3HSDIrpf7W_dzOWK5RWX7p_lba29LR8PmfyRFi4bqSMlk0ltBuRPRQpbzRRZeGshMx8aWd9x-oJJxCcqJVi58XfFSzh7HjSPS4AA0GiWCmHsXe2j0LViOlt7ffArb_DnwUrgq49n7aMYQ7eIrOmfpiWoIzT/s320/IMG_2771.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">We can purchase the bus ticket via vending machine or go to the counter.

I finally travelling again. For those curious, I am still covid free although been close contact with friends and family members down with covid. Singapore is seeing another covid wave ,with some of my family members getting second time infected with covid but luckily they were all mild. I guess covid is becoming endemic.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Still I need take cautious, I always wear my mask especially on public transport and crowded places. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">For my next trip, it will be different from previous trip, I am older and had pre illness medication to bring along this time round haha. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Both hubby and me are in our sixties now, so our trip will be very relaxing and stress free. We need to plan our itinerary to cater to how well our feet can walk haha.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOnxKwIr9K8S_jZApNkF1_qtz9x-pHEjnr1exklSp1MR6Tu-JADKwuRj58Kx3h1YhpUrEUhKbYKFuZkY_qCHTkOSHKZRxyDIRKdr0CqJFfJ5Vr-HSoIFlqGouYcgvrZirv-NXlg_3AQ4hapi3PUARoACqfgbW3X6x6AT_7GfsSURnNTE1C14fj/s1440/385054926_10231314095173073_989382274945977453_n.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1440" data-original-width="1080" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOnxKwIr9K8S_jZApNkF1_qtz9x-pHEjnr1exklSp1MR6Tu-JADKwuRj58Kx3h1YhpUrEUhKbYKFuZkY_qCHTkOSHKZRxyDIRKdr0CqJFfJ5Vr-HSoIFlqGouYcgvrZirv-NXlg_3AQ4hapi3PUARoACqfgbW3X6x6AT_7GfsSURnNTE1C14fj/s320/385054926_10231314095173073_989382274945977453_n.jpg" width="240" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">This time I am going to Japan (Kyushu) for 6 nights and 3 nights in Seoul , South Korea. The reason being I am taking Asiana Airlines which transit in Seoul . I could not get any Singapore Airlines Tickets that fly direct to Fukuoka (flight time about 6 hours)</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">My second option was either ANA or Japan Airlines but they need transit in Tokyo before flying to Fukuoka. The flight time from Singapore to tokyo around 7 hours, transit time in Tokyo about 2 hrs, flight from Tokyo to Fukuoka is about 2 and half hour. Total flight hours will be more than 10 hours (including transit time)</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Third option was taking Asiana Airlines to Fukuoka from Singapore. The flight time from Singapore to Seoul is about 6 hours 25 mins, the transit time is less than 2 hours and the flight time from Seoul to Fukuoka is about 1 hour 20 minutes. Total flight hours will be less than 10 hours (including transit time).</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">So I take the opportunity to extend my trip to Seoul and stay in seoul for 3 nights after visiting Kyushu. As I had visited Seoul few times, this trip to seoul will be a very relaxing and shopping trip.</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgSx-QKE1bmnwVhMcEhu_kIeD58l5sFhPciue0iOdTIPsaajsEyHd08rzQyd5i2Ugg3-R7aElerAwaHSnQkggco-HB_aGLopw6ekvXKfJVnNXQ5Ag2oFZxWtkGLiVVyEFfCdJCE_ld0vqJB4YwDaeyR9hi-kXxgKbtLB2M2paGsJPMsXBYDaXa-/s960/387876884_10231355335204048_5201311103538232287_n.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="960" data-original-width="960" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgSx-QKE1bmnwVhMcEhu_kIeD58l5sFhPciue0iOdTIPsaajsEyHd08rzQyd5i2Ugg3-R7aElerAwaHSnQkggco-HB_aGLopw6ekvXKfJVnNXQ5Ag2oFZxWtkGLiVVyEFfCdJCE_ld0vqJB4YwDaeyR9hi-kXxgKbtLB2M2paGsJPMsXBYDaXa-/s320/387876884_10231355335204048_5201311103538232287_n.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">This is my first time visiting Kyushu, so I went to the Japan Tourism Board in Singapore to collect some maps and information.

But with Covid around, we had to be very cautious. So we decided to be local tourists in our own home country. Things we would either not do cause of the many tourists crowding all the famous tourists attractions. Now that not many tourists are able to come to Singapore, the crowd in most attractions and places is so much thinner in Singapore. It gives us a chance to revisit some of our favourite place without having to Queue to enter these attractions.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjA-Up5EthjoCjEUvZZJtrd-P5MOy6AdzbLoAz9XeHDtSlf0RF7xrCs9TR-bn0E6_tEGcD8IiIl7JOZVUsbywNyYa9MpNR89MPQ0x2Niae0h_sgrqnr_NgqbNiDl3Uh1yPNGLG4/s2048/1.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1601" data-original-width="2048" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjA-Up5EthjoCjEUvZZJtrd-P5MOy6AdzbLoAz9XeHDtSlf0RF7xrCs9TR-bn0E6_tEGcD8IiIl7JOZVUsbywNyYa9MpNR89MPQ0x2Niae0h_sgrqnr_NgqbNiDl3Uh1yPNGLG4/s320/1.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I was so happy that Marina Bay Sands was having a promotion called 3 in 1 bundle for the first 300 visitors per day at a promotion price of only S$10 to visit three attractions in their premises but need to be a member to be able to enjoy these promotion price.

After checking out of Hotel Gracery, we dragged our bags out around 6 am and walked only about 5 mins to the monorail station. Our flight was 9 am and we need to be at the airport for security check at least two hours before departure. We managed to take the second monorail train (the first train is around 6.05 am). Surprised to see the train packed with mostly people going to the airport.

Jetstar was very strict in the check in luggage weight as well as the hand carry luggage weight. We dont have a problem with the weight cause we just wore our winter coat instead of putting in our luggage hahaha (the winter coat is really heavy).

This bring me to the end of my Okinawa travel story. As the covid 19 is here to stay for some time, I wont be travelling too soon. Many countries are badly affected by the virus and many death reported. It is so sad. We are now experiencing a partial lock down in Singapore which will end on 4th May 2020. Hopefully there's no extension. I cant even go anywhere except to go to buy my groceries. I cant even visit my siblings. We have to co operate with the authorities to fight this virus. Hope all will be back to normal for the whole world .
</p>
I am not sure if there's anything I will post in this travel blog since I wont be travelling for a while unless there's something interesting regarding travel, will I continued with the story writting. Thank you for visiting my blog and come back again to visit when I resume my travelling.

So we decided to just crossed diagonally from our hotel to Hans Steakhouse.

The American Village is located near the sea and with a nice beach. But I was too tired to walk towards the edge of the beach in the hot weather and carrying my winter coat. The weather can be hot at one moment and cold at another moment.
