Jumpers in Japan

We had to wake up at like 3 in the morning to get our plane. I wasn't really in a deep sleep though cause I was so excited to get to Japan. But boy it was a big day of travel. From plane to train to train to train- what a pain!
But when I arrived I felt so good! Maybe a bit cold but I can handle it. We went straight to Osaka which is south of Tokyo in the bullet train. We need to get a bullet train in Darwin that goes straight to Toowoomba.
It was dark when we got to our hotel but gee it was cool! I have never been in a little house where we get our own Pacman game! We only had time to go to a sushi train (thank god, I have been waiting for one!) and then bed.
Our first real day in Japan started off cold! We visit Family Mart a lot and dad gets his beers and I get my chocolates. Frog likes the sushi here too. We caught the Osaka metro to our first spot of sightseeing - Osaka Castle. I liked visiting here because it had a beautiful garden with trees that were gold and red. The Castle was very Japanesey - I really liked just being able to run around with Frog. And of course we tried a vending machine for ..... an ice cream of course! Freezing weather needs a freezing snack.
At night we went to a crazy place full of lights and lots of people. I was a bit confused cause dad said we were going to see the running man, and I thought we were going to watch a race but it was actually a big bright sign at Dotonbori. Strange things happen sometimes when you travel.
We tried our first piece of Wagyu - deliciousness melting in my mouth. I could get used to eating that!
First impressions of Osaka are pretty good. Maybe a bit cold and I don't really like wearing so many clothes but all the yummy food is worth it.
And the best thing about today was that I found a 3 storey Daiso!!! My most favourite place on earth. I HAD to stop in for a shop!!!Read more
