Made it to Osaka on my own!!

So I was able to get all the way to downtown Osaka on my own. This may not mean a lot to you but its really one of my crowning achievements. Probably the hardest thing I've ever done in my life. I feel like you could make a 3 part movie (similar to Lord of the Rings) about my quest to get from my apartment to the apple store in Osaka. Anyway I have a great sense of freedom now since I can make it pretty much anywhere in Kansai (kind of like the metroplex) on my own.

Here are some video's I took while I was there. Let me know what you guys think about the video's compared to pictures.

This is some reggae singer on the streets of Osaka. It was just to terrible not to video tape. This guy would fit right in at the Camp Deer Run talent show.


This is the sushi restaurant I ate at in Osaka. They charge you per plate, I had 4 I think. Total was $4.


Next up my first trip to Kyoto.

I love it that you are prob. the only 6 ft tall red-head male walking around with a video camera in Japan! That's awesome. By the way, Russell and I think you are going to come home with a Japanese girlfriend/fiancee. Bill and Myra will love that!

Bro you've got to keep this blog as strong as you've started. You've set the bar high. The videos are great -- keep the pics in there too. When's a good time for me to come? early-mid June maybe?
