Japan (Feb 2012) Day 10: Osaka to Fukuoka
Today is another travelling day. Our overnight train Twilight Express was being delayed due to heavy snow in Aomori the previous night, and therefore we arrived more than 2 hours later (around 2pm plus in the afternoon) than intended at Shin-Osaka station.
Luckily we were using JR pass, so even though we missed the Shinkansen we originally planned for, we were simply able to just book for another Shinkansen ride after we arrived at Shin-Osaka. We had about 20mins to buy some food at Shin-Osaka station before we had to rush to catch our Shinkansen train from Shin-Osaka to Hakata station in Fukuoka, Kyushu.
