The happiest thing about the trip is that the companions are all familiar friends. Like this trip to Japan, more than 20 people in a group know each other, and many of them are old group members who have been traveling together for nearly 20 years. They know each other well and talk freely, playing all the way, cheerfully.
Autumn in Kyushu is already thick, and the red leaves around Kinlin Lake and Yufuin are everywhere, very bright, and there are often persimmons hanging high on the branches to join in the fun, shining in the sun, which is even more joyful for see. There are also many tour buses in the parking lot, some of which carry Hong Kong tour groups, and the others are from Thailand and South Korea. The bustle is very lively, except that masks still need to be worn in accordance with the Japanese government’s mask order, there is nothing else Strange, everyone didn’t take the epidemic seriously.
After three years of turmoil, people have held back. If there are reasonable epidemic prevention measures, they will comply with them. Even if wearing a mask is uncomfortable, it does not affect your happiness. This day I had dinner in a hot spring hotel in Beppu. My old group mate said that when I was looking up old information on Facebook, I saw the Kyushu tour that I helped a travel agency in 2014. The fare was exactly the same as this time. I feel amazing, very conscientious. This is actually not a matter of conscience, because I just draw the itinerary and the price is a matter of travel agency. If there is a conscience, the travel agency also has a conscience.
What makes me happy about this incident is that the greatest achievement I have achieved is that I have made many good friends as a guest on a gourmet casual tour group for 20 years. Over the years, whenever I have free time , I will travel the world together and gain knowledge. The years go by and the friendship is getting deeper and deeper, each time we get together happy and we leave happy. This blessing is something to be thankful for.
