8:30am
Wow do we wake up early... well it feels early because im tired after travelling all day!
we are about to leave for Osaka Castle
then we are going to Honganji Temple, Kiyomizu Temple and then Kinkakuji Temple! biiig day!

8:20pm
Osaka castle was really cool but my fave Temple today was the Kiyomizu Temple... mainly because there was hundreds of little markets and shops leading up to the temple was awsome!

Also did a bit of shopping. Me and paige decided we werent game enough to try the Japanese food so we tryed to look for what we thaught was edible today for lunch(not very cultural of us but we were scared its out first day) so we had ice cream and octopus on a stick coveredin cheese it was crazy of course we didnt realize it was octopus at first but hey it was actually nice.. though a bit sickening after a while!
Once we got back to Osaka we went wandering around the streets exploring for a while, there is this shop called family mart... im pretty sure its an american franchise.. it was pretty cool me and paige loved it!
