On Christmas Eve, Zara did a lot of driving. We took the coastal road instead of the mountain road back towards the ferry. We stopped by to take pretty pictures of pretty things! Here are some.
Also, we took a break in Kumamoto, a city in a prefecture that means "Bear Tree", which made me really happy. We grabbed lunch at a little restaurant and they gave us apple juice! Afterwards we hopped over to Kumamoto Castle, which is supposed to be really awesome but was actually mostly boring. Without the flowers or trees in bloom and everything under contsruction, we mostly just wandered around taking ridiuclous pictures and then hung back to the city area for some ice cream.
Afterwards we found our way to the ferry and went back to Nagasaki Prefecture. After some more driving, we got back to Zara's and got some Xmas Eve dinner at her local izakaya (or tavern). It was really delicious food. The best was by far the chicken wings stuffed with gyoza pork dumpling filling. Ughghghg so artery cloggingly delicious.
We celebrated the rest of X-mas eve by watching "the Queen", which I really enjoyed, and then we fell asleep.
