Just a very quick update. We didn't have very good wifi yesterday but back now. We got to Fukuoka on the bullet train with no problems. We took the fastest one available the nozomi.
Our hotel is part of a huge shopping and leisure centre called Canal City. After arriving at 4.30 at the hotel we were unpacking in our room, which over looks the shopping centre, and down on to hanging gardens and fountains, we were suprised to suddenly hear Dancing Queen being blasted out of a PA system. It turns out that on the hour every hour up until 10 at night music is played to make the fountains dance. A sight to behold.
Everything at Canal City is festooned in pumpkins and Halowe'en decorations. The Japanese clearly love all things orange spooky and sparkly at this time of year. I'm loving it!
