Waking up at early of 6 AM in Japan time (4 f-ing AM in
Jakarta time) was really hard for me normally, especially when you had a
sleepless night before and only got 5 hours of sleeping, but the holiday’s
endorphin really kicked in and made me wide awake. We only had one bathroom for
a room occupied by 4 persons, when I did the math (which I really do) we only
got 15 minutes of bathroom time. After some of us had finished our bath time,
we rushed to go to the cafeteria to redeem our free breakfast meal (yess free
food!!). we had to choose, whether a Japanese or western meal, and guess what?
No one chose western (we’re in Japan of course we have to try the local
dishes). The Japanese meal looks like this:
(Japanese breakfast: Seaweed, Vegetables, plum, miso soup, tamago egg, salmon and rice with apple tea)
After we finished our delightful breakfast, the rain started
to pour hard in front and none of us dared to go through. We unfortunately
decided to ditch one attraction and Shintenoji was the one. Rain was still
pouring outside but passable, we stored our baggage and borrowed umbrella from
the hotel and rushed to the shin-osaka
station. It took only less than 10 minutes to arrive. We used our JR
Pass to go from Shin-Osaka to Osaka and Osaka-Jo Koen station.
