2009 Japan Group Trip

Beppu was next. The interwebs described it as Japans Las Vegas without the gambling, only sex. Beppu has alot of hot springs, think sooz said 600, which a guy started to promote to bring tourist to Beppu. Its a seaside summer town and we didnt see many whities. On the first night outside a department store, a lady stopped us to get Sooz & I to take a photo with her, crazy.
We went to a african safari park and got to ride in a "rino"bus and feed animals along the way. We feed sheep, goats, deers, lions, elephants, giraffes, bears, biason and zebras. Also eagles but not deliberatly. We also fed small monkeys in another cage. There was a cat & dog salon. The dogs were just small yap yaps and there was a variety of cats. You payed 300yen and you could play with the cats. They also had a lion cub there. It was sad because it was in a small area with only a ball to play with and it was scared. I sat there for a while and it got use to me. We started to play. Of course there was a window between us but it was still cool.
We than visited some hot springs, like hell valley/rotorua type places. Lots of sulphar, steam and hot water/mud. One of them also housed a crocodile farm.
Our next stop was a sex museum. Now we were just standing on a corner trying to get our bearings when a guy came up to Justin and started showing him a brochure and discount tickets for something. It turned out to be the museum which was handy. Now I will use the term museum loosely. It was more a private collection of asian pottery, statues and animal penis's. There was movie entertainment, life size models and an action model but I will not go into that as parents are reading. Pictures will not be published in album.
A major highlight was our hotel room, it was huge! We had 2 rooms the same. All had double beds and plenty of moving area. We actually all got to hang out in a room together with room to move. The hotel had a hot spring bath too. Sooz & I tested it out. The water was very hot inside, we went outside as was a little cooler but still could only stay in for 5min.
