December 20
We saw two whale sharks, a penguin march, and a scuba-diving Santa Claus. I've realized that the additional perk of traveling in the winter is being able to see Christmas illuminations. Morioka's illuminations are limited to a string of lights looking like a christmas tree on the walls of our bank on the main crossroad. Not very impressive. So it was nice not only to see a different city, but also the collection of their pretty lights. Osaka was our first real tourist stop after Tokyo, but we were also given a little detour challenge. Our friend Kunino's dad asked us to take a TV in our packed car and take it to Tenri Town, a hour away from Osaka, but on our way from Tokyo. Well, we named it "Casey" and departed to find this town. The temple was beautiful, but it is not the usual tourist sight. So seeing four foreigners in this sleepy town, holding a television and asking where to put it, was a challenge in itself.
Finally it was dropped off and we made it to Osaka. Soon after the aquarium, the okonomiyaki, and the ferris wheel, we departed for three more hours til the isolated island of Shikoku.
**okonomiyaki- egg, batter, veggies, and meat mixed together and fried in a roundish shape. It tastes like a Japanese egg pancake.**
