I went to this HUGE toy shop.
Umm..
Whoa!
After the lecture, the school took us all out to dinner.
I had Takoyaki for the first time. Damn. One of the tastiest treats. Takoyaki is octopus balls. Well, not octopus testicles, but battered balls of goodness with octopus bits inside of it.
The owner of the restaurant gave us a bunch of free random goodies to try out.
This guy is awesome. I want to be like him when I grow up.
Afterward we walked around Osaka. It was probably one of my favorite areas in Japan.
We walked by this crazy place that looked as if it had swastikas all over the place. I guess it reads ‘Hitlers Cafe’ in Japanese. No it doesn’t. We thought it did though. It was a Buddhist temple. For those who don’t know, that swastika-looking symbol is called manji. It’s actually facing the opposite way and represents love and mercy. At first I thought we stumbled into the wrong side of the neighborhood.
Karaoki is everywhere. It might even be bigger than religion. Actually, it might even be a religion.
I learned: Smoking cigarettes inside restaurants and other establishments, is perfectly legal. Smoking outside is illegal and frowned upon. The few people who do, don’t throw their cigarettes on the ground because that’s littering and they take pride in their country, unlike some people in other countries. A lot of Japanese people carry around miniature pocket ashtray cases that they put their cigarettes out in. It’s also frowned upon to eat outside or while walking. Everyone is very kind, positive, well mannered, pays attention to little details, has a great work ethic, very family oriented, and super helpful (even to strangers). Japan makes me happy.
Osaka hang outs.
