At last- Kobe wagu beef!

Today we woke up mega early to get dropped at the airport. Our next form of transport is a plane to Tokyo, Japan. When we arrived at about 11, we went to get Sim cards so we can keep up our posts and as we were doing that a TV channel came up to us and asked if they could interview us. It was about why people come to Japan. After that we found a Nintendo display and me and Fern got to play for ages whilst mum sorted out the sim cards. We played Lego 2K Drive- loved it!
Next was a train to Tokyo City and then a bullet train to Osaka.
Our unit is awesome- pacman, pool table, Wii, heated floors and heated dunny!
We found a sushi train close by for dinner. It was so cold we had to bring out the ski jackets!
Our first real day in Japan we went to Osaka Castle. I have never seen a real life castle and I loved it. The trees were weird and look a bit fake because they are so perfect. We found a row of vending machines and Fern and I straight away spotted icecream that looked like our favourite from Sri Lanka!
We got some cool photos of throwing the yellow ginkgo leaves into the air, like it was raining leaves.
After walking through the gardens we found a 2nd hand shop and I found a cool pair of Nike's that were Airforces, but they are really light and soft and only $16. I snapped them up!
In the freezing evening we walked to Dotonbori which is the busiest place in Osaka because of 2 things- the Running Man and Mr Crabby Crabby. It's about 2km from our house but we walk through a long shopping mall to get there.
I found a skewer of Kobe A5 wagu which was $10. Definitely worth it, and I will do it again and again and again till mum has no money left...
We had a quick sushi train at Dotonbori and then a cold walk home.Read more
