Fukuoka, Japan

I quit my old job since they are a bunch of ungrateful jerks, which means that in order to work in Korea at a new job I need to make a trip to Japan and obtain at work visa. A few days in Japan was what I needed to get my mind of the past worries of the last few months. So I visited Fukuoka, Japan. It is the nearest Japanese city to Busan on the tip of of Korea where I live. It take about 3 hours by ferry. The city is only about 1.5 million, but since population is so concentrated it really feels like a huge city.

Fukuoka was much harder to get around in that I expected. Unlike in Busan, the street signs, bus stops, and maps are not in 2 languages. That means almost no English. I don't know about you but I can't read Japanese.

So many bikes! Everyone there ride bikes.

Everyone drives on the "wrong" side of the street in Japan. I love these 3 wheel scooters they have.

I visited a Sega arcade complex. This was amazing. I can't describe what I saw in there. I hope this short videoclip can help. What I saw was pure insanity.

They are weird group arcade games. Most of them have a strange center that looks like a hive, alien, nuclear core, and one is a horse racing screen. I think some of them are for gambling somehow. Who knows!
