A day trip to Mount Aso and Kumamoto Castle~ Kumamon is really super cute. Big and small Kumamon toys to take home! A pilgrimage to Fukuoka for Detective Conan fans (Conan really knows how to travel). Luckily, the Mount Aso crater was open, but it was super windy 🥶. So cold! In the evening, I had Fukuoka's specialty grilled chicken skin. Delicious, delicious, not greasy at all 🤤 Day trip itinerary: Kumamoto Castle - Josaien - Mount Aso Crater - Kusasenri - Roadside Station (recommended to book a day trip) 📍Dinner: Chicken Skin Daimyo ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
