I was too tired to post anything yesterday, so I guess this wouldn’t be a daily thing. But something is better than nothing, so I am back posting a few highlights.
We were on the way to our hotel around lunch time yesterday and saw this fascinating phenomenon where people were selling bentos out of their cars and trolleys near Hakata station. There were also food trucks with long lines.

We had this really delicious soft serve in the basement of Hakata station near Hankyu department store. I never had soft serve like this before, seriously. Again, what is with Japan and milk products?

Autumn colours are starting to show:

We love spotting artists out in the wild:

Did some art in the cold while chilling at Starbucks Ohori Park. In Seoul there were plenty of outdoor cafes and the weather was more moderate so we did a lot of art. Over here it is a lot colder and more difficult to find suitable outdoor seating so this is just my first spread since the beginning of this trip:

I was actually distracted with some background worries but my mind refocused a bit through the act of making art. I’m beginning to be more aware of all the noise my mind is making. I am not sure if this awareness is a good thing.
I decided that the posts for this trip will not have a consistent format, and I’ll post according to my mood in that moment. I’m curious to see the eventual outcome of this series – it will be my first attempt to do something like this instead of my typical weekly posts.
Do let me know if you have any thoughts!
