Kitakyushu

I didn't do much in Kitakyushu since it rained when I arrived. I was also tired. The hostel I stayed wasn't good, either. I think the manager's relatives were staying at the hostel, too. There were two little kids running around in the living room. The following morning, I walked to the Kokura Castle and the Yasaka Shrine, which is next to the castle. I didn't even take too many photographs in Kitakyushu. Soon after, I took an express train to Fukuoka.
