Day 1..arrived at Osaka quite late...checked into Hotel Chuo Selene, which i found at www.hostelworld.com. Its so comfy and spacious and clean...definitely deserved a good review :)




#2

Vending machines are everywhere in Japan! and those drinks be tasting so good :)




#3

Day 2..woke up so early to visit the Osaka Kaiyukan and Tempozan ferris wheel. To our surprise that place wasn't that far from our hotel..reached there damn early again and both Kaiyukan and ferris wheel also not opened -___- hence the camwhoring.

Japan Rail Pass for 7 days unlimited JR rides...costs $373 AUD each. Transportation in Japan is so so so so expensive T_____T
