  2. Totally doable, since Fukuoka is a decent midpoint between the two cities.
  3. Your options would be either the Shinkansen or the highway bus. From the airport, the subway transfer to Hakata Station is pretty easy, and you would catch a train or a bus from there.
  4. Kumamoto isn't where all strawberries come from, but they're pretty famous from there. It'll be the right season for them as well. Also consider Kagoshima which is a little further south for great tonkatsu and udon, plus the sight of Sakurajima blowing smoke. You can even take a ferry across the bay for an even closer look.
Is Huis Ten Bosch a whole day excursion?

I’m also a Starbucks Jimoto Made collector so I’ll probably try and hunt down these mugs during trip! Lol
