​
Questions:
1. How is the pace of this itinerary?
2. Should we get our souvenirs ahead of this trip? I heard Hakata Station has a lot of shops but unsure whether it will have as much variety as Tokyo/Kyoto.
3. Will a 7 Day JR West Sanyo-Sannin Pass cover all the trains this leg of the trip?There is conflicting information from different websites whether all the trains will be covered, specifically the train from Kyoto to Amanohashidate.
