I'm taking a leaf out of Lisa's Ichigoichielove and do a similar post about us walking but instead of Tokyo Walking, we went Osaka Walking. *^^* Will this be a series or just a one-off post this year? Who knows? Annnnd... if you want to know more about Lisa, read this fine interview Kirin had with her.
There was one year when instead of arriving into Japan through Narita Airport, we decided to enter through Kansai Airport instead. Once upon a time, we can get an open-jaw ticket at bargain price with JAL. Haven't seen those for a couple of years now - bargain tickets at JAL, not open-jaw ticket.
So where do tourists like us would normally head to once in Osaka? The Minami area, I guess. No? Correct me if I'm wrong then. ^^
In Dotonburi, we found
a giant crab! It's alive! The claws were moving! @.@ Woo woo
and a dragon too! Darn, it did not breathe fire.
We decided to join one of a number of long queues forming on the street and chose this stall called Honke Nippon Ichi Otako, to buy
takoyaki! Not exactly cheap, but I've never looked at takoyaki sold at Jusco here in Malaysia the same again. A guy at the stall welcomed us with a "Selamat Datang" greetings. Turned out he visited Sabah (or was it Sarawak?) before. He even recognised us when we came for the second time the next day.
Had some time with Ebisu-Sama. A Golden one, no less! XD
Went into the Shinsaibashi Shopping Arcade and spent time at the Disney Store, of all places!
Raimie even had the chance to chat-up Peko-chan. LOL
OK, since I think I still want to post a few more photos of Osaka, I guess there'll be one or two more post on Osaka Walking!
