Exploring Kyushu, a never ending story, part 24

 


Stumbled Upon. The other day we were going for a walk in some remote village and discovered this museum-farmhouse, open to the public. Discovering places like this is the big bonus for going off the beaten track.


Yappari Go Ube. Tokiwa Park in Ube City, Yamaguchi ken, is definite a must-visit if you are into sculptures. You'll find an amazing collection of art well blend in with the park's landscape.


Where is Everybody? Often we have the place for ourselves.


Yappari Plum Blossoms. They are here! Don't miss out. It's still winter, but we are definitely heading towards Kyushu's flower-power season.


Yappari This Is It. An early morning stroll in the park after a night of rain. This is so ........ Anyway, just Be There.


Rural. Do we go Left or do we go Right? Exploring this country village on foot because the roads here are truly way to narrow to navigate with Billie. Plus: walking allows us to interact with the locals. Konichiwa !


Yappari the Yellow Wave is here. First sign winter won't last for ever. Should i mention that Blue Sky?


Time for a Sunset. Looking across the Ariaki Kai with Mt Unzen in the sunset. Nice moment to dream away.


It Can Be Cold These Days. Even at the low-land areas in Kyushu


Yappari United Colors of Sushi. Last week this happened to us somewhere in Kyushu. Didn't argue, just enjoyed.


Yappari a winter trip reflection. We can look back on a wonderful Billie Bee Trip. And again we experienced that between Xmas and NY
it's the best time to go....we got Kyushu for ourselves ;-)



Yappari Safety First. During the winter months, there are those days
the road ahead suddenly goes white.


Where is Billie?

Exploring Kyushu, a never ending story, part 23


Bridges. It's very likely you'll cross a few of them.


Yes, autumn showed off its charms.


Wintery Scenery. This squid boat is waiting for better weather conditions. It's something special to explore small fishing ports like this and taste the atmosphere.


Summer Flashback. It's near freezing outside. Best thing to do is looking back at pictures taken during our last summer's camper road trip to central Honshu. Shirakawago


1-way rental. See here 2 of our campers fueling-up while on delivery to Tokyo to meet our customers.
