It is an overnight journey from Osaka to Kyushu Island, the third largest island of Japan and most southwesterly of its four main islands where this Oku Japan trip would spend the most time. There are different price categories aboard the ferry that range with seat only to double stateroom with bathtub.
We had a double stateroom with bunk beds and sink. My heart sunk when I saw the bunks because you know who was going to have to sleep up there; that’s right, me. There’s no way on this side of hell that Marine Steve would be able to get his heft up there. Sigh…
Bathrooms were down the hall, the ferry has a cafeteria, pachinko and what else does a passenger need?
