Kobe Beef
At last, I've arrived at the spot in this blog-writing endeavor I knew I would eventually reach; its inevitable that one day I would fall short of blog ideas, although I am never short of adventures..
This post will be a recap of my weekend in Kobe. Adventures include in chronological order: kobe beef, a flower garden, a dance festival, a very large buddha, sumptuous food throughout, a proper Japanese night out on the town that lasted well into the morning, lodgings at a 24-hour internet cafe, a sake brewery, and a night bus back to my town. Here are some photos.
After I get off the Shinkansen, I find the nearest Sushi-bar. This proves to be no easy task as I walk down endless side streets like a rat in a maze. In the end, all my walking worked up a massive appetite, and I ate heartily.
In the morning, a promenade on a small rock island and a lunch; my first--and certainly not my last--acquaintance with Kobe beef.
A huge buddha statue facing the main island, with right hand up in a welcoming salute. I am reminded of the Colossus of Rhodes.
A stroll through a Japanese flower garden with beautiful Kobe in the distance.
A Japanese dance festival, another delicious meal--which was in no way inferior to previous ones--and a shot of Sannomiya district, Kobe
A reminder as to why my English skills are sought after, and where I slept for less than $10 bucks a night.
