Japan trip day 2 ~ Osaka & Himeji

Woke up at 7.30am this morning.  Had a very deep and good sleep hence feeling fresher today. 
















We had our breakfast and left for Himeji.  Breakfast was good.  I liked the potato salad and the pickles.  Sausages too.
















Left hotel at about 9.45am and took a rapid train to Himeji station.  We took a nap in the one hour plus journey.  Walked to Himeji castle and we were happy to see a few sakura trees which still had flowers blooming.  Took some pictures of them and glad to see at least some.  We ate ice-creams too.  They were very very nice.






















While taking pictures of the castel, we met Shiromaruhime and chasing after her to take pictures.  The staff must be wondering what were we doing.  Hahaha.




















Took a short break at the garden before heading back to the station.  Initially we thought we will make a fast one since no more cherry blossom.  In the end, we spent a few hours there before going back to Osaka station.

We walked around Osaka station and the shopping area are so big till we lost our directions.  We can actually spent about 4 hours in just 2 malls and not even walked the whole area.  How to finish all???

I bought quite a lot of things today and they are heavy.  Hope rest of the days, I will not buy too heavy things.  :)

Had Okonomiyaki and Yaki Soba for dinner tonight.  Very locally made and super delicious.

















My legs are very aching ah.
