Travel Snap Tuesday: Osaka

I have been very fortunate to travel to Japan, not once but twice. The first trip, in 2009, was with my friend Kat and it was her 21st birthday present from her mum. While we were there we visited Tokyo and Osaka. The second trip was the most recent trip, which was in February 2011. On that trip we visited Tokyo and Niseko.

For today's Travel Snap Tuesday, I thought I would concentrate on Osaka.

Osaka was the second part of our trip in 2009. It started with a bullet train ride from Tokyo to Osaka.

 

This was an ad for Nintendo DS on the bullet train we caught. The story behind this photo is that 2 really good friends of mine went to a 21st just prior to this trip, dressed identically, on purpose in vests... I tried to tell them that vests just weren't cool, but they wouldn't believe me. THIS IS PHOTOGRAPHIC PROOF!!! haha.

We stayed at a really gorgeous hotel in Osaka. The hotel was built around a chapel/chuch.

One of the highlights of our stay in Osaka was the trip to Universal Studios!

Even though we didn't understand any of the shows, or any of the information as it was all in Japanese. We still had heaps of fun running around, seeing shows and taking stupid photos like these:

Osaka was a lot of fun. I look forward to sharing photos from Tokyo and Niseko on another Travel Snap Tuesday!

Travel Snap Tuesday is the brainchild of Little Miss Moi and is about sharing a moment in time through a photo (or three). If you want to join in, simply post a photo of anywhere you have been. Then head over to her blog and share your link so we can all enjoy each others travels.
