A little bit of Osaka

Actually we slept one night in a hotel close to the train station in Kyoto. I forgot about that.. anyways, the hotel where in japanese-style wich means you sleep on a madrass on the floor and have a small table and a place to pray in the room. It was designed traditional japanese so you got a nice experience. I slept very well that night, very comfortable.

In Osaka we had almost a day to spend before taking a flight late in the afternoon to Miyazaki in south Japan. From the first view of Osaka, It felt like nothing special, only a normal big city..and thats how it was like. It is not the same as Kyoto with a lot of old temples. It is more for business and food, yes the food should be very good in Osaka my friend Hiro had told me before! The first thing we did was visiting Osaka palace.

A big palace wich you can go inside and upstairs look at the view of Osaka city. After seeing a lot of temples and so in Kyoto, I was not very inspired to see more that day, so we went downtown to try this delicious food. Fried food that you dip in some sauce and soya was one speciality they had to offer. We had some of that together with a couple of beers.

At the airport we went to the ANA lounge because Hiro is with the memberclub of that company. That was awesome sitting in there drinkin how many beer and eat how much snacks you want before it is time to board the plane :) Usually Im very nervous before a flight but after 5 or 6 beers in 2 hours all fears where gone.

I like the concept of "beers for fears"...
