XXIII. IX. MMXXIX. - XXIX. IX. MMXXIX. Osaka, and Kyoto, Japan.
Just arrived here at the Kansai international Airport.
So, the manhole really is like this in Osaka.
Here ya go, a typical shot of the streets in Japan.
Never thought I’d do this.
Walked around the streets of Osaka alone. It was really quiet. Earpiece in, music blasting away.
You can never be too prepared.
This might be a species of bonsai tree.
My friend did actually notice that my face is a bit more fat. Well FUCK!!
Gave away my bicycle, want a new one now, wtf.
The Glico advertisement: KU QI KO.
Osaka castle. Even the stone forming the base has inscriptions of the different factions to show which side belonged to who.
Lovely tree.
There was some with kaya, and others with sweet potato. It was real light, and real good.
Ice cream innit!!
So I missed my stop on the way to Kyoto because I was really asleep. Had some shots at the train station during sunset. Eventually missed my train again because only when the train came, then I was figuring out if that train was the right train to head to Kyoto, zzzz.
Some chilled noodles with spicy level 4. It really wasn’t spicy at all. I was afraid I couldn’t handle the spiciness. But really, cold noodles? I’m not used to it.
Oh, yes, something familiar. Just finished watching the show a few weeks prior. It was nice :)
Clocked 30K today, what up.
I really wonder how I got full from those vegetables 😂😂😂 I love the omelette at the top left, the tempura and the vegetables was good!!
IV. I. MMXIX.
On ma way to bamboo forest!!
This is the lake next to Arashiyama bamboo forest. Cycled here from my hostel. Would’ve been some 2 hours walk. Managed to cut that down. What more with the effort being reduced. Should’ve cycled since day 1 I guess.
Anyhow, while waiting for my canoe, I was waiting, what the hell, going canoe alone. What a loser. 😂😂😂 Spent an hour at the lake, by the time I was done, the bamboo forest was closing 😂😂😂 No regrets there.
On my way back from bamboo forest, as I cycled back to my accommodation.
My friend suggested this ice cream and it was so good!!!! 🤩
On my way back to Osaka from Kyoto - 10 hour hike.
I eventually cut the bike to 5 hours, didn’t think I could make it all the way. I also wanted to arrive in the city on time for my backpackers hostel.
Uniqlo store, Japan.
Had supper here on my last night :(
Dinner.
So, I noticed that other patrons of the restaurant was given a towel when they arrive - the whites, Japanese. Except me. Other people after me was given their cup of water.
I also noticed at another restaurant that everyone was given a cup of water, except me. The restaurant was filled with people from Thailand, Japanese and China. I thought the waitress forgot about it but I do notice her looking at my table. Other people after me was given their cup of water.
