I went to Kyushu again during the Lunar New Year Holidays. I took KTX from Daejeon to Busan on Feb. 4. The ferry boat left Busan Habor in the evening and arrived at Shimonoseki, Japan in the morning of Feb. 5.
[The ferry "Seonghee" 釜関フェリー「ソンヒ号」부관 페리 『선희호』호]I was the first person who passed the customs of Shimonoseki. I arrived at JR Shimonoseki station at 8:15 and called Mr. Matsumoto and told him that I arrived at Hakata at 9:35 a.m.
[Near JR Shimonoseki Station,JR下関駅近くにて、JR시모노세키역 근처에서] I saw him at JR Hakata station, then we put our bags in coin lockers and had a short sightseeing walk in Hakata.
[A part of Oohori Park, 大濠公園の一角、오호리 공원의 일각]First, we went to Oohori Park next to Fukuoka Castle (only ruins). I came to this park with Alan a couple of years ago. There were many jogging/marathon runners around the pond. We found a big object of yellow pumpkin made by KUSAMA Yayoi.
["Pumpkin" by KUSAMA Yayoi, 草間弥生の『南瓜』,구사마 야요이의 『호박』]After walking in the park and the ruins of Fukuoka Castle, we went to the port area where we had “Nagahama Ramen.”
There is a fish market this area. The noodle of this ramen is thin so that the noodle can be cooked in a short time. So the customers can eat the ramen quickly during the bidding business at the market.
Customers also enjoy additional noodle called “kaedama” with reasonable price. It is possible because the soup of this ramen is rather thick.
I enjoyed eating this ramen with “benishoga” or “pickled red ginger.”
After having Nagahama ramen, we hurried back to Hakata station and took a special limited train “Sonic” which left at 1 p.m.
We change trains at Ooita to a local train of Higo Honsen at 3:09 and got off at Higo Takeda at 4:21 p.m.
I saw a beautiful set of Japanese dolls at the station. These dolls must be on exhibition until March 3rd, the day of “Doll Festival.”
[Dolls of "Taketorimonogatari"、竹取物語の人形たち、『타캐토리모노가타리』의 인형들]We rent a car at Takeda, and Mr. Matsumoto drove to our first hotel “Kuju Kogenso” at the foot of Mt. Kuju.
[Mt. Kuju from the hotel, ホテルから見た久住山、호텔에서 본 구주산]The hotel is located within Aso Kuju National Park and there was a spa in the hotel. We could see Mt. Kuju and even stars from the open-air spa surrounded by snow.
[The hotel "Kujukogen sou"、国民宿舎『久住高原荘』국민 숙사 『쿠즈코갠소우』] The accommodation of the hotel must be more than 100. There were many guests staying that night.
The dinner was delicious. We enjoyed the dinner with beer.
[The list of menu for dinner, 夕食のメニュー、저녁 식사 메뉴]We enjoyed seeing DVD which my 2nd son recorded when he traveled Kyushu with Mr. Matsumoto last year.
九州旅行第1日目 2月5日(土)晴れ
今年も韓国の旧正月の連休に釜関フェリーを利用して九州へ渡り、松本氏と九州の山を登山することにした。日程は2/4から2/8の4泊5日だが、往復ともフェリー内で泊まるので、現地では2泊のみ。
[The ferry "Seonghee" 釜関フェリー『ソンヒ号』、부관 페리 『선회호』호]2月４日(金)に釜山を出港。5日(土)の朝、下関港で下船。順調に手続きが終わり、1番に税関を出た。下関駅には8時15分に到着。松本さんに博多駅到着予定時間を連絡した。小倉で特急ソニックに乗り換え、博多駅には9時35分に到着した。

[The stone with a poem curved, 大濠公園の歌碑、오호리 공원의 가비]「しろたへの袖の別れを難みして荒津の浜にやどりするかも」万葉集 荷物をコインロッカーに預け、500円で地下鉄一日券を購入、大濠公園へ向かった。大濠公園の周りはマラソンランナーが大勢走っていた。また公園の一角にある美術館で野外に置かれたかぼちゃのオブジェを鑑賞した。
[The red blossoms of Japanese apricot ("ume"),福岡城址の紅梅、후쿠오카 성지의 분홍 매화] 「紅梅に青空華やぐ城址かな」黄山大濠公園を散策後、福岡城跡などを散歩してから鮮魚市場付近へ行き、「極細麺」や「替え玉」で有名な「長浜ラーメン」を食べた。さっぱりとしたラーメンでうまかった。

その後、博多駅へ向かい、午後1時博多発のソニックで大分へ向かった。大分には3時1分に到着。3時9分発の豊肥本線に乗り換え、豊後竹田駅には4時21分に到着。ここで軽のレンタカーを借りた。

二人で走るので軽で十分という判断で、その通りだ。1年前、阿蘇に登った時に泊まった「くじら」の近所を通過して国民宿舎「久住高原荘」へ向かった。
「久住高原荘」は思ったよりも大規模なホテルで、露天温泉が楽しめた。ここは1泊2食で8750円。夕食前に温泉に入った。若いパパが小さい男の子と女の子を一緒に温泉に入れていて、露天風呂にもいっしょに入った。
夕食はなかなか豪華でビールもはかどり、二人で大瓶3本飲んだ。部屋に戻ってから、亮が昨年11月に松本さんと久住山に登山した時などのDVDをバレンタインのお湯割りを飲みながら鑑賞した。これだけの録画がスマートフォンできるとは、技術の進歩につくづく感心した。
