Hello friends. I continue to live in Japan!
Okay, I know I promised that this post would be about showers, but frankly that sounds boring compared to what I did last weekend. Know what I did last weekend? I went to the AQUARIUM!
I freaking love aquariums. Any old kind of aquarium is good. But this aquarium... oh man.
This aquarium is enormous. The biggest aquarium I've ever been to. It was also filled with people, which was slightly frightening at times. But mostly I was excited because the cover of the brochure proudly proclaimed "Ocean, You See Whale Shark!"
And I DID see whale shark, as well as a number of other great aquatic (and semi-aquatic) critters. Take a look!
Oh man, I freaking LOVE aquariums.
So other than the aquarium, probably the most exciting thing I've done lately is go out for okonomiyaki with my Japanese class. Not familiar with okonomiyaki? Well maybe this video will help:
It's basically eggs, cabbage and other various fixin's mixed together and fried, then covered in mayonnaise and sauce. It's pretty incredible, though I shamefully could not finish my enormous portion. Here are some pictures of that experience:
Yummmm.
So that's basically what's been happening so far. I hope to do something interesting this weekend as well, but it looks like there's a typhoon on the way (not a joke) so we'll see if I can actually leave my apartment. In other news, I am now an official CET Osaka correspondent, which means that I'll be blogging for CET as well as on this blog. Expect a link to that shortly!
Until next time!
