Next Stop : Osaka

We went to Osaka to visit the Osaka Aquarium and also to take a ride on one of the world's biggest ferris wheel. However, before going there, Ange had to collect her air ticket from the agent in Osaka. After collecting it, we went for Korean food. This is "bibimba", rice in hot stone bowl. Quite nice.
Haha....this is me in the ferris wheel on the way up to the top.
This is the Osaka Aquarium. It's home to fishes, ducks, pengiuns, whale, sharks, stingrays, beavers, seals, dolphins, crocodiles, otters, and many many more. Better than the aquarium in Singapore.
Here are some lazy seals lying in the hot sun, resting. Don't let their bulk fool you, they are really great swimmers in the water, graceful and FAST.
These are the pengiuns, which were HUGE. There are some "kids", who still have their fur. It was feeding time, and it was fun to watch. One of the pengiuns kept harrassing the keeper to feed it... hehe.
After that, we went to Dotonburi in search of dinner.
These fellas are making okonomiyaki in the open. Japs like to eat okonomiyaki and taroyaki.
Ange took me to a shop that sells okonomiyaki. We sat in front of a "hot plate" and once they bring the okonomiyaki and other food, they will place it there to keep it warm for us.
We went back to to Umeda and took a photo of this ferris wheel that is waaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyy on top of building.
