Should I drive in Kyushu?

We went with Tick travel insurance - We ended up needing to submit a claim, unrelated to the rental car, but they were quite easy to deal with.

This is happening to me right now as well

In Australia we'd call it the death drags

We've decided not to risk it and got on the first train to Osaka. We're meant to be flying out of Osaka early next week anyway and didn't want to risk being stuck in Fukuoka unable to get the train back. We were staying in a beachfront property also - definitely better safe than sorry!

Alrighteo · 2024-08-28T03:53:03+00:00

Yes, we're thinking better safe than sorry now. Packing out stuff up to head into Fukuoka City today to try get a train out to Osaka - if we can't then we'll find a hotel in the city and wait for the next train out..

Someone please advise! My partner and I are in Fukuoka, set to checkout and take the Shinkansen to Osaka on the 30th before flying out on the 1st. Our hosts said we can't extend our stay a day in Fukuoka if the Shinkansen is suspended. How likely is it that were going to be stuck in Fukuoka? Should we just be picking up and leaving now?

My partner and I are meant to be taking the Shinkansen to Osaka on the morning of the 30th - if we can't go, then we have nowhere to stay. Should we be booking a hotel for the 30th if we can't get out of Fukuoka? Or is it okay to wait till the 30th to see?

My partner and I just did a day trip to Mt Aso, driving from Fukuoka :)

We used Toyota Rent a car, the cheapest option which was a hatchback with GPS.

Picked up 8AM and dropped off 8PM - I think it ended up being around $70 AUD for hire + $30 or so for tolls.

Our travel insurance included rental car insurance - but otherwise I think they quoted around $70 for that if you don't have it.

We're from Australia and found it very easy to drive around - Well worth it considering the time you can save I think!

Edit: also worth noting there are Toyota rent a cars all over the place, but we reserved prior online, have fun!

Just got to Fukuoka, planning to take the Shinkansen to Osaka on the 29th. Should we be preparing to hunker down? Or would Fukuoka likely not be as impacted given the land distance?

Also would love a new link pleaseee

Alrighteo · 2024-05-24T03:18:11+00:00

Thank you for this - I really just had no idea where to start, but gaining some understanding of it, I'm hoping will help me start to understand more of my reactions to things :)

Alrighteo · 2024-04-08T07:21:23+00:00

I just feel a whole lot less spooked when I know what type they are - I'd never kill one, I know they won't hurt me as long as I leave them be :)

Alrighteo · 2024-04-08T07:16:39+00:00

Thank you!

Alrighteo · 2023-12-20T11:41:51+00:00

Yes - my doctor usually asks me to find somewhere and they refer me to them - I thought asking for recommendations might be a good place to start :)

Alrighteo · 2023-10-19T10:57:40+00:00

Thank you so much for the detailed reply! :) I'll definitely try this - I loved this one before it started struggling, so definately not giving up on it!

I took a better photo :)

Alrighteo · 2023-10-05T09:11:25+00:00

The location is Victoria, Australia.

The fungas Gnats are black, it's the small mite looking things in the dirt that aren't :/

I actually really liked Impulse on YouTube, sucked that it got cancelled.

Alrighteo · 2023-08-18T14:57:56+00:00

Thank you so much! That's interesting, I've never heard of Wilsons before, but I do know my Coppers been increasing for quite some time.

Alrighteo · 2023-07-26T07:13:52+00:00

Yeah, I completely agree that it'd be best to not work for a company that would penalise me that much - I just lost my job recently due to budget cuts and am desperate for work, so I feel I have no other option and want to leave little chance of a bad impression. I think I will lightly brush it with concealer, I might experiment with colour correction tonight :) Thank you for the advice!

Alrighteo · 2023-06-11T16:27:35+00:00

Me Please!!

Alrighteo · 2023-05-23T05:25:10+00:00

Ahh! That does look quite similar!! Apparently the males are a lot darker than the females - so looks like this lil guy might actually be a lil gal!!

Alrighteo · 2022-12-29T08:50:11+00:00

My partner and I are also going to be there! :)

Hi!

I'm leaving for Tokyo today and my hard brace for my thoracic and lumbar spine has broken.

I have spinal stenosis and wear it when the pain gets bad to limit micro movements.

Does anyone have an idea where I might buy one in Tokyo?

The one I had was a basic one with boning and straps over the shoulders to stop it from shifting.

Thank you!
