As evident from some of my previous picture-posts, Kassie and I spent some vacation time in Kyoto while visiting some of Osaka and Nara. Kassie has already posted about the trip on her blog here, here, and here (part 4 coming soon right here). If you’re interested in the pictures we took, you can find them on my Picasa Web Album.

We had a great time. Usually, I’m so nervous vacationing in Japan because I’m worried I’ll get us lost, or something. But after having such a difficult time trying to find our hotel, I was more frustrated than worried, so I ended up letting loose and let myself enjoy our trip.

And I was finally able to eat some authentic Osaka takoyaki!

It’s quite interesting to imagine that 2 seconds after this picture was taken my tongue would be in pain and I would be unable to taste anything for 3 whole days.
