Osaka

After an amazing time in Tokyo, we took the Shinkansen (bullet train) to the Kansai region of Japan. We had booked a hotel in Osaka (the second largest and busiest area after Tokyo) to serve as a base to explore the area. Japan does not disappoint. We loved Osaka!! What a place to see!

This is the view of Mt. Fuji from the train. Bullet trains are the greatest! We traveled over 500 miles in under 3 hours!

Once we checked into our hotel, we wondered around the area and found Amerika Town. =)
How about the good eating?

Best dessert ever! They called them donuts, but it tasted more like mini deep fried candy bars. Yum!


This is the famous Osaka Arcade. It is a gathering place and has just about every shopping and dining option you could ask for.

Once we got through the covered shopping area, we emerged and saw this:

Japan just kept surprising and impressing us! It gave us so much energy and happiness! Vegas could be considered dull compared to this place.

Don't eat the blowfish! ;)




I'm not sure I'd want to go in there!
