Rachel's New Year's Holiday

I had a nice and relaxing holiday in Osaka with some friends :D

I tried osechi with snow crab and lobster-like prawns.
It was SO delicious!!

For breakfast I tried mochi soup.
It was not so delicious.

I tried going to a shrine in Ibaraki but the wait time was around 2 HOURS so I decided not to wait. Instead I went to an unpopular shrine in Kyoto on another day.

This shrine was built similarly to Ise shrine in Mie.

There was this awesome rock that you could walk through for good luck!
It was really cool.
