After settling into our hotel, it’s time to find some dinner. The weather was crisp and chilling and we opt to walk underground at Namba Walk.
A friend recommended this hotel in Osaka and we were lucky to be able to book it in a very short amount of lead time. We happened to find it in HotelClub.com and it was at pretty decent price. With this booking confirmed, we are spending a few days in the Osaka neighbourhood.
Sadly we had to leave Kakegawa. We had so much fun in such a short period of time (2 days 1 night) but we were scheduled to be in Osaka next. So here we go on the Shinkansen and this time, my wife was prepared; she brought us bentos to have on the train!
In between the Kakegawa Castle and the Palace (二の丸御殿) is the Tea Room (二の丸茶室), it was a nice surprise to have a chance to try the green tea produced right at Kakegawa prepared by the tea master!
Before we left Kakegawa, we also visited the Kakegawa Castle (掛川城天守閣). This is my first time in a Japanese castle and it was great seeing one.
During our stay in Tokyo, there was one day that it rained cats and dogs. It rained so much that when we walked out, our shoes were totally wet inside out within minutes.
Toast Box (土司工坊) is a nice cafe in Hong Kong that serves Singaporean inspired snacks and drinks. When I was staying in Hong Kong, there is one just near by and was great to try it out.
Here are some more photos taken in Hong Kong. In no particular order, these photos were taken in Mongkok and Causeway Bay.
