The Osaka Aquarium
The Santa Maria coming in to dock
This was a place filled with awe and wonder. The famous giant crab.
Staying in Osaka was a great idea. Our decision to stay in Osaka was based on the fact that all hotels in Kyoto were booked. Osaka is a 90 mile drive from Kyoto or a short train ride. We wanted full autonomy with our schedule and also wanted to visit Dotonbori street with its famous giant mechanical crab. I felt like Anthony Bourdain on one of his visits to Osaka. Everything on his show was so familiar right down to the drummer boy. This was a happening place and we truly enjoyed the grilled crab and octopus balls.
