In November my family visited me to celebrate me and my twin’s birthday!

 

They were only here for a week but we saw most of Osaka and Kobe so we used our time well!

Osaka Castle and Umeda ofcourse:

But also Osaka aquarium!

He was cleaning the aquarium but the stingray wanted to play with him:

 

 

 

And beautiful jellyfish!

We also went into the mountains north of Osaka and did the hike to the waterfall of Minoo:

 

The leaves were turning red a liiiiiittle bit already:

Small crabs were crawling around everywhere and children were collecting them to eat them later!

 

We visited to Tennoji Zoo in the south of Osaka:

 

With huge birdcages:

 

And really weird animals!

 

Besides Osaka, we also went to the lovely city of Kobe. There we took the cablecar up the mountains and hiked our way down through the herb gardens.

 

Lavender flavoured icecream!

 

 

Is this cool fish restaurant in the harbor we had a nice dinner:

 

We had a great time even though it was so short!!
