As i mentioned in last post we have made it to Osaka and the last couple of days have been great for me personally, Osaka has a section called `den den town` which is dedicated to electronics, electronics and electronics i have spent countless hours pondering over all the cool stuff i would buy if i had the chance… this makes me not want to wait for us to visit the Tokyo version and it is easy to believe how big the place in Tokyo is now that i have seen the Kyoto version of the electronics town….
much fun has been had not shopping for electronics thoe, but doing the next best thing in Osaka is shopping of everything else, so many speciallity stores here, such as a store dedicated to `snoppy` nothing is more fun than wondering into a store and then taking an escalator up and finding another differerent type of store with more stuff to ponder over…..
Tomorrow is big, we are heading back via bullet train to Tokyo to finish our round robin trip around Japan and i look forward to settling down for a week there, then onto KL…
Many photos have been taken but i do not have the ability to upload them yet, i believe once we are in Tokyo and a couple of days have gone by to setttle in properly i might be able to get some of the hard stuff out of the way,
its amazing the night life over here, it is 11pm on a week night but the streets are buzzing with people for blocks on end, and its like the rest of the city reflect this with most department stores not opening till 11am!!!! I still can:t get over the amount of bikes they have over here, in side streets and alleys there are hundreds of bikes lined up next to footpath polls and sign posts and the constant dodge`ing of on coming riders is something that is easy freak you out sometimes.
Its easy to spend money here, althoe i have not made any big purchases yet, there are some items i would love to have that would eat into my savings and crush me in the end, all would be worth wild thoe. I know bayon has run out of yen and is in need of converting some more AUS into YEN but then again he is a money spending machine with arms and legs…. phun intended…
We had a good night tonight also, we mananed to find the america town of Osaka but it did not live up to the hype fortunatly we found a good place to get some food and had a really good time, i must get some photos up to show you guys, any way its late and i must be off, hope you guys are all well and remember its almost only 1.5 weeks till we are back in AUS…
cheers, for now.
