Japan life - Part Two - Osaka

[hawkmoon]

I often go to Osaka for business trips.
Osaka is the anti-Tokyo. People here are more vibrant, more loud, and more expressive. I think it suits us Westerners a bit better. Osaka people find Tokyo-ites boring and dull. Conversely Tokyo people find Osaka-ites a bit uncouth but they love Osaka comedians.

This trip was during a Typhoon and I got out of Tokyo with just minutes to spare. You can see how empty the Bullet train's platform and seats are. All the train lines feeding into the station had shut down and I only just made it.

Out at night

A few shots from my window and out for the night.
This is the most well-known area of Osaka city and has a lot of color (buildings and people).

I would like to offer up the request that you please do!! I knew they liked to ride bikes, but seeing the photos in Osaka, I didn't realize how much!

 

[BigRican]

Nice pics, keep 'em coming!

 

[hawkmoon]

Girls...

Well, I will be walking around Ginza with my girl on the 31st, so I may be able to snap some good shots.
Lots of pretty girls around there.
Ginza is a nice place too; have to be careful though with all the designer shops, etc.

I'm all for that, too.

 

[JETHRO TULL]

I LIKE THOSE PICS AS WELL!

It's cool to see things/places like that from someone who lives apart from the U.S.A.

"MY GIRL"... you mean your daughter... or Chica?!?!

In any case, both are cute... in their own style!!!

Osaka!!

More Loud and Expressive? Yeah, I agree.

I saw this band from Osaka yeeears ago, I didnt expect the little japanese girls to sound like this..

YouTube - Yellow Machinegun - Heartache

Thanks for the insight in JP culture Hawkmoon.

Osaka

Yes, I agree with Hawkmoon. Girls in Tokyo are actually somewhat "taught" to act demure and "girl-ish"... girls from Osaka, they'll punch you.

I dated a girl from Osaka, her Dad owned hotels all over Japan. She was definitely "edgy".

 

[IslandGirl]

I would love to visit Japan! You are lucky!!!

Thanks Island Girl.
I've had my ups and down here, but it is a great experience overall. For a visit, the place can be mind-blowing.

I'll try to get other photos up soon....
