Osaka Aquarium - Home of the Overwhelmingly Cute

GOOD MORNING!

Another wonderful morning in Japan. However this time we have a special surprise in store for our friends.
We prepare a tabemono journey west, with as much flare as we can must with our culinary might (and with Japanese ingredients).
And to top it all off, we throw in a bit of my specialty, nerd coffee.


The spread



Bacon, Sausage + Mushroom Omelette

Aeropress. The traveler's best friend.

Natto: Love it or hate it



After breakfast we hop to train towards to harbor and make way to the Port of Osaka.



Sights on the way



The "Santa Maria"

That's a big'n








Thank god



After looking around the port for awhile, we head into the Aquarium.
As one can start to notice, the Japanese have quite the penchant for gut-wrenchingly cute graphic design. And when animals get involved, it only gets better.

The feeding schedule. Because let's be honest, that's the only reason we're even there.








Creepy Crawlers




Derp

This is an Indonesian mammal that eats coffee cherries. It knows what's up.
Obligatory Aqua-Photo. Aren't we cute?


"It's so fluffy, I'm gonna die!"

Goofy little river otters. They were running around everywhere being adorable with ADHD.


Fatties

Derp derp

The Dolphins were great at doing tricks!

They were really fun to watch

Dogs of the Sea


It's what's on the inside that counts

Dance!

We wrap up our adventure and greet the beautiful blue skies.











 We have a tasty dinner of yaki tori (grilled chicken) and enjoy good sake and shochu.
