Come And See Osaka Castle

Sometimes I feel like getting back to the old days when SAMURAIs were wandering around here in Osaka Castle...

2014 and 2015 are the 400th anniversary of the Siege of Osaka in Winter & Summer.

Come and see Osaka-jo (Osaka Castle) if you have a chance to visit Osaka!

DAY36 Last Night in Taiwan (Taoyuan)

Image
I woke up leisurely in the morning and packed up the buggy.  It was a bit sad to dismantle it after a long ride.  I wandered around Taoyuan City again.  In the afternoon, I met up with Kanae and a friend from Japan.  Miyuki guided us to the Zhongli tourist night market.  We had some delicious food again tonight.  Taiwan's night markets are all lively and fun.  My last night in Taiwan was a memorable one. *Today's Distance: 0km  Total Distance from Taoyuan: 917km * Today's Photo Album * YouTube Playlist

DAY 37 Taoyuan International Airport-KIX

Image
On the morning of my return home, I packed up my tent and packed my bags.  Afterward, Kanae and I had a lively conversation about our trip, and Miyuki arrived.   We walked through the shopping district again and even Miyuki bought some souvenirs, and finally, just before 10:00 AM, Uber car arrived.  I said goodbye to everyone and headed to the airport.  With some time before departure, I wandered around the airport, reminiscing about my fun days in Taiwan and coming up with various plans for when I return to Japan.  I checked in just after 1:00 PM and boarded AirAsia flight D3778 just after 3:00 PM.  How fast! I arrived at Kansai Airport in just two and a half hours.  Taiwan may seem far away, but it's actually quite close.  I'd definitely like to visit again. *Today's Distance: 0km  Total Distance from Taoyuan: 917km * Today's Photo Album * YouTube Playlist

DAY35 Taoyuan

Image
  I woke up late in the morning and strolled around town.  I did my laundry at the laundromat, and Miyuki came over for lunch at a nearby restaurant.  Miyuki also runs a meat floss shop and is an executive of the shopping district, so she introduced me to various familiar shops.  After eating my fill, I went to a sweets shop and had tapioca for dessert.  I ate so much that I didn't even need dinner.  Many Japanese shopping districts are probably endangered species, but in order to revitalize them, the community must work together. *Today's Distance: 0km  Total Distance from Taoyuan: 917km * Today's Photo Album * YouTube Playlist
