Japan

I went by ferry to Fukuoka (uh, that’s Foo-COKE-uh), on the southwest coast of Japan, in December 2003 to renew my employment visa for Korea. Since then I’ve done short layovers to Osaka and Tokyo. As the stereotype goes, Japan is expensive and so my visits are always brief, but here are some glimpses. Japan is compact and does have a sort of futuristic look in places, but turn a corner and there’s a leafy temple.
