... Tuesday, Wednesday off, so Jess decided to take Thursday and Friday off as well to get a whole week off! Nichelle and Saffiya opted not to, so they were going to be heading home later that day.<br><br>Anyway, so we took the train to Himeji City and crossed the main street right outside the station and there it was, at the top of a hill at the end of major thoroughfare, Himeji Castle in all its glory. We stopped at this really cute basement garden cafe for ...

... So many interesting shops and buildings. The first thing we did was went up in the Kobe Harbour Tower to get another view of the harbour area. We then set out to find Kobe Harbour Earthquake Memorial, which I found to be very disturbing / fascinating. They actually kept a piece of the harbour area that had been destroyed during the earthquake and preserved it as a memorial. Around the memorial are numerous plaques and kiosks ...

... functioned as commercial and residential shells. We headed for a hotel about a station stop away from the main Kobe train line. The main dish of the afternoon? Kobe beef&#8230; <br><br>It is rumoured that the beef is regularly fed with beer and barley, along with a special diet. Some even goes as far to say that the beef has been massaged and surrounded with soothing music to calm the animal down. Even during its slaughter, the beef is made in high spirits to ensure the ...

... tunnels and low gates, we eventually arrived at the entrance chamber, where we removed and bagged our shoes, and continued onto the first floor. Following a defined pathway, past living quarters and other rooms, we continued upwards. On each floor, there were displays of memorabilia from the era. Two items I found very interesting was an original weapons rack, which still housed the rifles, staffs and ...

... up with a fisherman for a father. I've had 29 years of being taught to believe that raw fish is either bait, or in need of cooking. But I tried it. Soaked more than adequately in soy sauce, I hurriedly ate it, and surprisingly it was not too bad. I was expecting a strong raw fish taste like biting the side out of a flathead, but it wasn't bad at all. Actually it had very little taste whatsoever, and was obviously super ...

There was also a room with an equipment for reviving the heart (CPR) just in case an elderly person had problem when climbing to this highest floor. (It is fortunate that my daughter and my husband decided to wait down at the entrance ...

Having stayed here for a few nights now I figured it was about time I explored Osaka itself a little so on a recommendation from a couple of Canadians staying at the hotel I set off towards one of Osaka's main entertainment districts, Dotombori. Feeling quite hungry once I got there I opted to try some Octopus Balls one of Osaka's popular delicacies from a street vendor. Being handed a box of 6 (dunno why it was not 8) I dug in to find I quite liked them and as with ...

... it did the entire stretch in about 15 seconds. That didn't go down well with either myself or the boy as we unsteadily trembled out of the lift. We got there at noon having got up at about 10.30 and started on raw fish... At this point, I could think of about 10 or 11, no, every food type that I would rather have other than fresh raw fish for breakfast. However, as Nana had gone to every effort to try and make me experience as many different food types today as ...
