Science Museum!!

Yesterday we went to a science museum that was very cool. There were all of these different rooms and floors that were very cool. There was stuff about space, new stuff that they have made (that relates to science in some weird way) and other stuff. My faves where the anti-gravitizer, which would make your weight less, so you could jump really high. It was pretty cool. But, my all time favorite was this house that was tipped and you couldn't stand straight in it. I kept on falling over and running into walls, and it made you feel really dizzy. It was all really cool!

Osaka Aquarium

Yesterday we went to the Osaka Aquarium! It was very cool. There was a tube that was all clear and had fish all over it! We saw penguins, sharks, rays, a lot of fish, otters, sea lions, whales, dolphins, and a lot of other stuff. I was there with some friends of my parents and there children, who didn't speak english but we still had a great time with eachother. The hard part about it was that there were almost six trains that we had to take. But, it was worth it because at the end we got to touch rays AND sharks!

Bird Park!!!

The bird park was so fun!!! First things first, there where flowers that were growing from the ceiling!!! It was very beautiful but I had always wondered how the flowers would be water when they where hanging. Second, they had the prettiest birds that you could feed, and hold!! First, we feed some ducks, which my brother was more interested in, and swans, black and white, which I was more interested in. The ducks would attack my brother, while I was feeding this really huge bird that I think was a Pelican. We also went into a place with little parrots and small birds, which the person there would put on you. There was also big toucans, which if you got the food for them, would COME ON YOUR ARM!!!! It was really cool. We also saw a lot of other birds, but my favorite was seeing the birds get trained. There was an owl and a parakeet. The parakeet could say hello, and the owl flew right over us. We got to see them both fly back and forth and we also got pictures with them. I actually got to pet the owl, which was AWESOME!!! I really want to go there again!

Hot Springs!!!!

We went to the sea yesterday! We found jelly fish that had washed up, but they were dead. We would pick them up and throw them. But sometimes they would rip. After that we went to a spa, where for the first time ever we went into a hot spring. The hot spring is like a natural hot tub. But, you don't wear a swim suit. In fact, you don't wear anything at all!! But, the hot springs are separated by genders. It was pretty odd, but it was very relaxing. Today we are going to go to a bird park with tocans, owls, hawks, stuff like that. But, you can feed them and they come up to you and hop on your arm!!!

Birthday time!!!

To celebrate my brother's birthday, we went to an amusment park! First my brother and my mom went into a "Haunted Mansion.". They told my dad and I that there was a corpse that they had to go around since it was just laying on the ground, and the next thing that they knew, the corpse was right in there faces, screaming. We also went on a ferris wheel, a real rollercoaster and a virtual one, which where all very fun!

Kobe Tower

We had a great time today!!! We went to the Kobe Tower and it was REALLY tall. First was the elevator which had a big window that made you feel like the elevator was going to go too high and crash. When we got to the top it was really cool because you could see the whole city!! My favorite part was the sky walk, where there was clear glass plates that would surprise you because before you walk up to them they are fuzzy and then they aren't fuzzy and you can see everything that is under you. Today is my brother's birthday and we are all very excited to celebrate it!!!

Japan!!!!

I am in Japan!!!! We are at a hotel and are going to move to a apartment in two days. When I went to Greece recently, there was buttons, handles, and strings. Now, there are special toilets that spray you! When my brother and I first tried them out, we were in different rooms, but, we were screaming so loud we could hear each other! When we went to a sushi place, my brother for some reason found a really cool car in the front of the restaurant! It looked like it was from the future!! Today we are going to go to a museum and I am really excited!!
