Anniversary In Osaka!

Emma and I took a small mini-vacation to Osaka to Celebrate our 1 year wedding anniversary...

We found an ad for the Hyatt Regency which offered the "Touch Plan", which gave us one night in the hotel, dinner, a cocktail, and breakfast in the morning for 33,000 yen ($308)... Which was a really good deal considering the quality of the hotel and the food!

We went to Osaka in the late morning and went shopping in Shinsaibashi (with the obligatory stop at the Apple Store), had a crazy good lunch deal at a pizzeria, then checked into the hotel at 5 or so... We relaxed in our room for a bit (they had The Discovery Channel there, so we had to take advantage of it) then went to the Suntory museum IMAX theater and watched a 3-D movie about the ocean.... It was pretty sweet! Lots of cool sea creatures I had never seen before!

Then we came back for a drink, and then dinner! The pictures will describe dinner better than me talking about it.... It was good! Real good!!

The next day we had a wonderful breakfast and then took in the Osaka Aquarium... Such a huge aquarium!

Osaka was a great way to celebrate our anniversary... I'm thinking we might need to Touch Plan it up again....

OK, this looks like the dreamiest anniversary EVER. Peter and I tend to have crazy disasterous anniversaries every year. You guys know how to do it! Good job, being married should be celebrated, it's a good thing. I wish I could taste some of that food right now. Oh well, I'll just go have a slice of cheese...maybe a frozen waffle...actually, we went to Spoonriver in Mpls. yesterday and thought of you two, we'll have to go there when you get back. It was good stuff. It was no foie gras or anything, but pretty tasty. We miss you guys! Thanks for sharing all the pictures with your cyber audience.
