A trip I never planned.. And times when I was grateful I didn't have a job..
My sister's family went to Osaka, Japan for a business trip..
And since I had nothing to do.. I tagged along :)
To see the Osaka Castle..
And bond with my sister!
It was my first time in Japan, and everything fascinated me..
At their food stall or van, you order and pay at the vending machine on the right, and give your receipt to the cook to get your food..
At the Nara Park, deer roam around freely..
Lots of them.. And I felt like Snow White, haha! :)
Though they don't go beyond the entrance..
To the Todaiji Temple..
At Shinsaibashi, shoppers are always busy..
Look at their hands!
At Dotonbori with the famous running Glico man..
And the famous Kani Doraku Crab whose legs and eyes move..
And whose name I just discovered from Wikipedia a minute ago!
Now meet Pablo..
Cheese Tart is not the yummiest but addictive.. Cheese Mille-Feuille is nah..
But the Sabrel Cheese Black Cookies with cocoa and truffle.. Gosh, I want them now!!
If you can't find the Pablo shops in the city, their products are sold at the airport ;)
(Just a sidewalk)
At the Science Museum, everything is in Japanese!
This robot solves Rubik's cubes..
At the Umeda Sky Building..
The view of the city.. Well, just buildings..
And finally a chance to sit down during the Tombori River Cruise..
When sitting down was heaven!!
My sister wanted to make use of our JR Osaka Pass, and we had to see everything in one day..
So by this time, my legs were dying if not dead!!
And by this time, I was also already calling her father-in-law, Dad! haha! :)
Where we ate, by the river..
It was very good, though it's not hard to find something good in Osaka, Japan :)
