Beppu is the sister city to Rotorua (NZ), and is packed with hot springs and sulphur stench. We went from "hell" to "hell" trying not to be tourists.
We later ended up at a Karaoke bar in Oita. Matt pleasured our ears with his out of key rendition of Bon Jovi‘s "Living on a Prayer"... hmmm... I regretfully declined the embarassment.
