Konnichiwa!
Travelled by Shinkansen to Osaka this morning and then went to the Umeda Sky building - amazing views of the city!! Glass lift going up was a bit scary for Dee!
Weather was a bit grey so decided to go to the aquarium which housed a huge tank and some wonderful aqua animals - dolphins etc. Also saw what claims to be the biggest feris wheel in the world.
Dee craved pizza so pizza it was at all cost - pizza hut rules in all countries!(American's taking over the world again)
Planning on going to Himeji Castle tomorrow so currently resting and watching some strange Japanese type programme somewhere between "It's a knockout" and "World's strongest man" - Sukesi
At another Toyoko Inn Hotel bit out of the way but it was the last place we could get as Osaka appears to be VERY busy for some reason - perhaps to do with Cherry Blossom?
All well, bit tired today due to travelling and walking lots. Peanut's been kicking and punching a bit but good.
Days are merging into one but we're not complaining!
