JAPAN TRIP PART 2: TRAVELING OSAKA

Have you read my first trip to Japan a while back? Well, here’s the rest of my adventure if you would like to see.

On our last days in Japan, we all headed to Osaka by train (I accidentally bought the Paletas lemon ginger lolly stick, and it was a yummy mistake!).

We spent the first day visiting Kyoto to see Kyoto Tower and the beautiful golden temple in Kinkaku-Ji park.

But day two was the FUN day! Since we (still) wanted to entertain Yuara and Kutri, we ended up going to Universal Studio Japan improptu where the kids got to see and play with a bunch of favorite characters they love (aka Elmo for lil K, Spiderman for big Y, and Harry Potter for mamo – yeay!). Though it rained that day, we didn’t waste the fun. I mean, how could we, if we got to stay dry in Elmo rain jackets and umbrellas?!

We stayed at Kobe and spent the next day at the Osaka Aquarium Kaiyukan. Being the curious kid he is, Yuara was over the moon to see penguins and many other sea creatures.

Oh, we did some sightseeing in Kobe too! I found this small handmade shop selling bags called Eavus  – it was really to die for! We stopped over at this Kobe Style Steak restaurant in the beautiful Kobe Harborland, and I’m telling you it was super delish! And the view... We stayed till the day was dark and enjoyed the wonderful lights!

The overall trip to Japan was so memorable I just can’t wait to plan a visit back there already!

Thanks again to Tripang for making it a wonderful trip.
