This summer in June I went on a family trip to Asia for 10 days. I spent two days in Tokyo, one day in Osaka, and part of one evening in Kobe for a Kobe Beef dinner. Kobe beef is orgasmic to eat. Unfortunately, I did not remember to take pictures of the Kobe beef. For your mental imagery, I’ll say it is prepared similar to Habachi.

Osaka Castle

My favorite picture of Osaka Castle. Almost as if it was back in time.

That’s a Japanese Koi Fish with a Tiger Head. It is of Japanese mythical lore.

Those Poles Had swastikas at the ends
Japanese Airport Food right before getting to boarding

And now for dancing Japanese teenagers (nearby Castle Osaka).
