Kobe
Since I couldn’t make it back to Yokohama Monday night, I took a sick day for Tuesday and explored Kobe…
Kobe’s china town.
Since Kobe was one of the first ports opened up to the western world, there was a lot of western influence on the city.
This statue shows the exact time of the Great Hanshin earthquake
Ikuta Shrine
Soraku gardens
I found a very Kobeish cafe for lunch.
The water science museum… for kids, but I still had fun.
Known as the Weathercock house, it is one of the famous foreign residences in Kobe.
Lastly, I couldn’t go to the Kansai area without eating Takoyaki.

Sorry, comments are closed at this time.
always carry a copy of the hanshin pic w/ u. in case in the future u fall thru a crack in the space time cont and u befriend a prof who can send u back but only during a quake and says, "but unfortunately marty, one never knows where or when a quake will hit…” then you can triumphantly whip out the pic and dramatically say, "until now.”
on second thought i guess that will only happen after u change ur name to marty
