!@#$% Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 i can't wait to go to Japan i thought it might be my next destination but dayum tickets skyrocketed thanks for sharing so many pics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
da1lyoperations Posted June 19, 2012 Author Share Posted June 19, 2012 Keep an eye out for cheap deals, my mate got his tickets on a 2 for 1 offer. They weren't direct flights but still, super cheap. Had to go Sydney > Melbourne > Cairns > Japan. I'm sure airlines in other countries do the same kinda thing. It's definitely worthwhile!

!@#$% Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 i know how to shop for deals. that's why not be able to get much below $1400 was making me think i'll have to wait. thanks though. (if you look in my thread, you'll see i took a bus to nyc to fly into buenos aires and rode some buses and flew out of rio.) i remember when south african airlines did a two for one to cape town. i almost bought and kinda regret not doing it.

da1lyoperations Posted June 29, 2012 Author Share Posted June 29, 2012 Yo thanks for the offer man, but we're only going to sell it at like $3 or something! Haha.

da1lyoperations Posted October 29, 2012 Author Share Posted October 29, 2012 Also I've got a flight booked to Osaka for February 2013. Pt.2 in the near future :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrChupacabra Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 This thread made me start seriously considering a solo Tokyo trip. Problem is, I'd want to go during the cool months and I'm not sure if I can pull my shit together that quickly here for a trip of that magnitude. Props for already having round two lined up. If you don't mind me asking, what was your february plane ticket like coming from Aus? I wanna say they were in the $1600 range for february from the states when I looked a few weeks back. Feel free to pm if you don't like discussing financials on here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
da1lyoperations Posted October 29, 2012 Author Share Posted October 29, 2012 Yeah, they're not super cheap for Feb, and most of the seats for flights seem to be filled. I'm going with JAL from Sydney > Tokyo > Osaka. It's about $1150 with my return flight going Tokyo > Sydney. There's a few new airlines with cheap flights, but they go through Singapore, etc.. And you lose 5-6 hours on most of them. I'm meeting a mate in Osaka when I get there so the extra money was worth saving the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, flying out tomorrow morning at 9am to land in Osaka by 8pm. Taking a digital camera this time so when I get back there will be some real photos to post here.

da1lyoperations Posted February 7, 2013 Author Share Posted February 7, 2013 Can anyone point me to the direction of any stores in Osaka that may sell aerosol paints. And stationary stores with a good range. Message me if you like, Google has been absolutely no help. I'm outta here on Monday so it would be good to find something by tomorrow afternoon. Thanks!

Schnitzel Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Maybe tokyu hands department store from memory has a range of aerosol paints. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
da1lyoperations Posted February 8, 2013 Author Share Posted February 8, 2013 Thanks man! I know exactly where that is. They definitely have a world of wonderful stationary that's for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
da1lyoperations Posted February 24, 2013 Author Share Posted February 24, 2013 Okay, so I figured rather then starting a new thread I'd just continue on this one. I feel this is just a continuation of my last visit anyway. I've got a mix of iPhone snaps and proper camera photos so I'll try to keep them together, but since I landed I've picked up a rugged flu. That's what you get for not sleeping and coming home to hot shitty weather! Try to keep some order where I can, the iPhone flicks may be a bit larger.. Enjoy! Flying into Tokyo before transferring to Osaka Relaxed here after a late flight Got up the next morning and headed to the Osaka aquarium to see some Whale Sharks Walked back via the Umeda Sky Building to check out the city Spent a few hours getting my bearings, had a few days before the homie flew in so I was spending that time doing some touristy shit. And relaxing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
da1lyoperations Posted February 24, 2013 Author Share Posted February 24, 2013 Next day I went to see the Osaka Castle, again a pretty touristy thing but some cool areas to explore around it. Went for a lurk around Shinsekai, one of Japans poorest areas. Minimal development since WWII. Checked out the Tsūtenkaku Tower there. View from the tower.

da1lyoperations Posted February 24, 2013 Author Share Posted February 24, 2013 Next day got up and took the train to Kobe. Went to go up Mt. Rokko, and it was freezing. Taking snaps along the way. Caught the bus to the Cable Car stop to get up the mountain. Had to take another bus from the top to get higher up for the lookout, it was still early and overcast though. Waited for the bus to come back, but all the signage was in Japanese and nobody seemed to be around. Kinda felt like Open Water but I was on a mountain, the bus just never came back. Decided to walk back down. Ended up getting a good view on the way back though. Kobe City, Got back to the bottom and had some lunch, then had a lurk round the streets.

da1lyoperations Posted February 24, 2013 Author Share Posted February 24, 2013 Back in Osaka. Homie flew in the next day so I went for a quick walk before he landed. Went for some drinks Ended up going to this tiny joint for some fucking dope okonomiyaki, the owner didn't speak English so he called a friend and we used them to translate, awesome guy. Had a few beers and drank some whiskey with him and his wife and chef. Great people. Ended up roaming around pretty pissed, tried to steal a bike but luckily the wheel was locked. Thankfully, would have been a bad idea. Also don't wanna rack some nice persons bike, haha. Got some amazing hungover udon, everyone is so excited when you make the effort to talk to them and compliment them. The chef wanted to hit us on Facebook straight away, went back for seconds the next day just cause he was so rad. Lunch time Went for a walk to hire bikes for the last 2 days. Cheap and made it fucking easy to get around to spots and see the city. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
