We went to Kitakyushu for a mini-trip. Mommy had a wedding to attend so we decided to make it a family trip. Mommy went first and met up with friends before the wedding. Daddy and I left after lunch so that we could check into the hotel when we arrived. There were some delays with the train that we originally wanted to take so we had to change our plans and take the Shinkansen instead. I didn’t mind that at all, but the ride was over very quickly.
We arrived safely in Kitakyushu and checked into the hotel without trouble. I was a great traveler and did not cause Daddy any problems. When we got to the room we had a couple of hours to kill before Mommy could join us after the wedding, so we just hung out in the hotel room and watched a movie: Paw Patrol The Mighty Movie. I saw it before, but this time I watched it in Japanese.
The hotel was very nice for such a reasonable price, and then even had a little amenity set for me too. I got a toothbrush, toothpastes, and room slippers. They were so cute that I didn’t want to take them off. When Mommy joined us after the wedding and we headed out I wanted to wear the room slippers. Mommy and Daddy eventually convinced me to change to my shoes.
We went shopping a bit before we went out to dinner with one of Mommy and Daddy’s friends. Mommy and Daddy used to live in Kitakyushu and had not been back since they moved. So it was a good opportunity for them to catch up with different friends.
Dinner was fun and I was very well behaved. Mommy and Daddy’s friend was surprised at how much I had grown since she last visited us. She was surprised to hear how much I could talk and had fun interacting with me. When I was younger I would either ignore her or cry when she tried to talk to me. She had fun catching up with us.
After dinner, Daddy took care of me while Mommy and their friend went out for drinks. Daddy and I had our own fun and treats. We stopped by the convenience store and picked up dessert and juice. We started watching the Paw Patrol movie a second time while eating dessert. Then we went through our bedtime routine without any problems. Even though we were in a hotel I bathed, dressed, brushed my teeth, read a book without any trouble at all.
Then I was fast asleep as soon as my head hit the pillow. What a busy and fun day of traveling!
