Mark 12:31-32

Mark 12:31-32 - 'And you shall love the LORD our God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.' That is the first commandment. "And the second, like it, is this : 'You shall love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no other commandment greater than these."

Paint or Snap?

Quote of the day : If opportunity doesn’t knock, build a door. - Milton Berle

While digital camera is being more and more advance year after year, there is still people who prefer to capture the scene with paintings, and surprisingly I found them at one of the most advance country in the world!

大阪の公園

Quote of the day : There are two ways to live : you can live as if nothing is a miracle; you can live as if everything is a miracle. - Albert Einstein

Here is some random view at one of the park leading to Osaka Imperial Palace. Seriously, it looks so relaxing eventhou with all the botak trees (its winter!). Can't imagine how awesome the view will be during spring! Something we can't find at Malaysia, jogging with such nice view surrounding you. Definitely would be one of the reason to start jogging.

Osaka Alley

This is one of the view that you can see at Japan, not just Osaka (where this picture was taken). Three-stories building with a mixture of wooden and cement design, bicycle, greens, and vending machine! They are one of the most advance country, and yet they are also one of the country that well preserved their traditional culture. Take a walk at one of the Japan housing area, and you will get what I mean.

Tsutenkaku Tower

This is the market way at night, leading all the way to Tsutenkaku Tower at Osaka. Can see from the picture how the typical Japanese working man wears, and no, they are no detective from Conan!

Osaka Museum of History

Luke 11:9-10
"So I say to you, ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. "For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened.


Here is one of the building I stumble upon at the park while walking to the Osaka Imperial Palace. Its architecture looks a bit European to me so decided to snap it, only to realize it is actually the Osaka Museum of History.

Museum of Housing and Living, Osaka

Quote of the day : Just do what you do best. - Red Auerbach

Yes, this is a museum! At here you can see how the Japanese live their life when apple and blackberry is still known as a fruit. You can also try out the traditional clothes worn by the Japanese for free here.

Osaka, Day View

Quote of the day : Be a good listener; Your ears will never get you in trouble. - Frank Tyger

Here is one picture I took while at Billiken Tower aka Tsūtenkaku Tower, another place for a 360 degree bird view of Osaka. Entrance is free of charge as we bought the 2 day pass package for gaijin which includes quite a number of entrance tickets for some tourist spot around Osaka.

Umeda Sky Building

Quote of the day : There is only one success - to spend your life in your own way. - Christopher Morley

The Umeda Sky Building (梅田スカイビル) is the seventh-tallest building in Osaka City, Japan, and one of the city's most recognizable landmarks. It consists of two 40-story towers with the height of 173 m (568 ft) that connect at their two uppermost stories, with bridges and an escalator crossing the wide atrium-like space in the center. Located in the Umeda district of Kita-ku, this building features a rooftop observatory, The Floating Garden Observatory, as well as an underground market that attempts to recreate the atmosphere of Osaka in the early 20th century. At the base of the towers is an urban garden with walking trails and water features.

A little bit like some kind of scene in your game huh?

Daimaru Peacock Supermarket

Guys, this is a link where you can help out Japan. Help spread the word, hopefully this will make a difference. =)

Here is somehow an unique architecture I saw at Shinsaibashi. Not really a classy branded shop, but guess what, this is a department store a.k.a. supermarket! There are a number of Daimaru store across Japan, and this one located at Shinsaibashi is one classy store with the interior of the store is exquisitely decorated.

Shinshaibashi limelight

Quote of the day : Winners never quit and quitters never win. - Vince Lombardi

This is how many doggies you can fit into a baby stroller. Stumble upon these few dudes at Shinshaibashi-Suji, one super long street full with shops of all kind of stuff. This is not all of them, there is one more tied on the stroller roaming outside that I cannot get him in unless I wanna mess up with the composition =.=|||

Cute aren't they?

Takimi-koji

Quote of the day : Accept what you can't change, change what you can't accept.

The basement of Umeda Sky Building, Takimi-koji. It is the recreational of the streets of the romantic Taisho era, full of antiques. This is where the famous okonomiyaki shop, Kiji is located. Sort of a small town indoor!

The Hidden Building

Quote of the day : Turn your wounds into wisdom - Oprah Winfrey


Saw this building hidden within the park while on the way to Osaka Castle. Its seems so serene yet lonely lying at there. Wonder what she is there for.
