OSAKA ー Continued

Aquarium & Osaka Castle

Hello all again from Osaka :)

Wooooowwwwww its so great to be on HOLIDAYS :)
Wish you guys can all be here. Its an amazing place. Dotombori is where we are staying which is in the Namba district. You think Kings Cross has alot of lights.. This place will shine all over the cross hehe.. Night life here is so ALIVE where as the morning streets are so quite. We had breakfast in a strange place that servered hamburger meat and rice hehe.. with chilli sauce hehe

For dinner we had Yakatori's which are skewers. We sat right in front of the guy cooking so we can see what others order hehehe and just point to the guy and said "1” or use sign language.. We had quail eggs wrapped with bacon, chicken liver and heart, duck meat, local chicken, meatballs and frogs.. haha joking bout the frogs Sommy.

Still we havent had sashimi as dont think we are still in the right place for it.

We went to one of the worlds largest aquarium..they had a whale shark in the tank i think and the fishes were abnormal LOL...
We also went to the Osaka castle which was amazing and extremely tiring as they had steep stone stairs. We cheated and took the elevator up hehe and took the stairs down hehe..

Today it has been raining so the weather is not so great for sight seeing but that didnt stop us :)
We went west of Osaka and headed for Hemiji where we visited another castle. There was no cheating in this castle as they only had STEEEEEPPPP stairs going up and with no lighting in th place made things just as hard.
By the time we got to the top we were exhausted... but the view was amazing. A castle in the middle of a city..

Tomorrow we are heading to Hiroshima to go visit the A BOMB site.. From here we are not sure if they have any internet there so we will post when we get the chance again.

Good night all from Dotonbori Osaka.

Love
Tiger/Lay

hi jap tiger & jap lay,
looks like u guys are a bit over excited about the the whole thing lol..!
mate, sashimi is expensive stuff in japan so most casual dining places dont have it, actually not something they eat everyday. but then u can almost get all your meals from the vending machines lol... yeah everyone brags about the vending machines there. hey have u tried the electronic toilets yet hehe...
well happy exploring, just make sure u come back in one piece.
