Osaka castle

Hey! We have had alot of trouble with Internet connection in Osaka so that's why there's been so few updates lately. I will catch up with it these next days, since we're all back in Tokyo now!

Ok, so we arrived by night bus early morning in Osaka on Monday. Jonas, Agnes, Yannick & Natto stayed at a hotel close to Shinsaibashi (I think it more speciically was in Amemura. The "Harajuku" of Osaka). Rebecca & I stayed in another hotel not far away from there.



The first day we mostly strolled around downtown Osaka. We were all very tired from the long bus trip, so we fell asleep pretty early.

The next day (Tuesday) we went to Osaka castle! Very cool and exciting!

Me & Rebecca. In the background is a smaller building in the Osaka castle area. 

Flavored crushed ice were sold in the area. Very appreciated since it was a really, really hot & humid day! (Yes, that's towels at the display).
We had lots of fun!

 Later we ate a meal at a restaurant in the area. Tasty, as always. In the evening we went to shop at the 100 yen shop Daiso, and to play some games at the game centre.

Unfortunately I got sick that evening. I will write more about it in the next post, and update more about the rest of our stay in Osaka. See you! ^^

  4. Tom: It sure is a paradise! But the humidity makes the evenings way more comfortable than during daytime.
