May 30_ Back to FOOOOOOD!

 

We left Okayama bidding farewell to our amazingly warm, delishus Western breakfast (mmmm french toast…). On our way to the Shin Kan Sen, a high-speed bullet train, we picked up some bento boxes for lunch. We got on the train, opened our bento boxes and then ate our emoticon mochi (immediately after).

We arrived in Osaka, stopped by a grocery store (we spent $40 USD on delishus grapes!) and then checked into our hotel. Then fab five headed to the Osaka aquarium. Thankfully, we didn't get blown away from the epic winds from Songda (Jesse says its a possibility that it was the typhoon or it may have just been the ocean). The aquarium was really well designed, as a side note the Tennessee aquarium was designed by the same architect. The circulation was really awesome because it was basically a ramp that brought you down to bottom of largest tanks allowing a constant change in the viewers perspectives. the biggest fish there was the whale shark (Amanda brought one home and it even squeaks! Yup, whale sharks squeak. I bet you didn't know that.).

During the dolphin feeding show, one of the dolphins decided to take a large poop right in front of Rochelle (apparently, she thought it was interesting…Jesse and Amanda disagreed). About midway through the aquarium, we decided to get a snack. While we ate our snacks, we were enjoying our view of the harbor when suddenly people on bikes came flying by (almost literally, the wind was really strong). We finally left the aquarium after three and a half hours of non-stop awesomeness and headed back to the hotel. We finished our day with our ridiculous grocery dinner (aka expensive fruit).

 

Sayonara,

 

Rochelle, Amanda and Jesse

cheap juicy couture handbags Oh my, pick me- pick me! This is just what I need, help with a plan. I'm a watercolor artist and want to share my fun, fresh paintings with the world but i need some focus. I've been trying different venues and experimenting with varied products, yet I seem to be pulled in too many directions. I just know that this would be the book for me!
