Japan (Kyoto & Osaka) Nov 09 Trip - Day 9 - Wrap Up

In the train - to Osaka

It has been the 1st working day for me in 2010. (Yeahh....) Wake up with a migraine from yesterday night (and I pretty much slept around 3am and wake up around 7am) Go to the office and realized that I missed a meeting (where the invite was sent out like yesterday night while I am asleep). Anyway, I sent my update to the team and realize that I still need to complete one more item for this release (Plus I have been assigned to one additional roles to cover for my US peer). Anyway is fine with that... as long as I still have my personal life with me after work. If not I am going to call it a stop to ensure that I have own personal timeto keep me motivated in my life. :"P

More Photos after the jump... :)

Train is pretty empty now...

Train is moving fast... real fast

and it is raining outside.

Noticed this cool place after a Wash room session - I need a model there. ;"D

LB at the train platform - Cheers! :)

He got a new shoes :)

Finally, I wrap up the whole Japan series photos in this post. Yes, it is going to be the last one. And I realize like the more I reach the end of the trip (in terms of photo processing) I pretty much will finalize lesser and lesser photos in it. :"P (May be it is almost the end of the trip, and pretty much I have relax myself not to shoot too much photos but to shop more and eat more) :"D~~

yes, tones of pigeon outside the park

A autumn view of the Osaka Park

Birdie in metal? ~: O

Osaka Castle

Sparrow - one last shoot before I left

So let's see... we are at the Osaka park... somewhere before the Osaka castle. and then to the kids land (Now I remember why I didn't take any photos... caused I was amused by all the action figures!!! darn... I just can't help myself when I am in that street... I am like back to standard 6 again... when looking at all those figures...) The figures are just so detail... even though they are small... you will be amazed by the quality for each of the figures. ;)

We are at the market

I just love the fish - It is hugh! :D

We are here at Dotonbori

During the night we are at the Dotonbori. one of the entertainment district along the southern bank of the Dotombori River in Osaka. It is a hugh city (Not to mentioned the largest in Western Osaka) with a lot of neon light there. (So strobist, if you all are there, do bring your gear with you, I believe it will create a lot of great effects here and there) ;)

Anyone, feeling hungry? :"D

A lot of lights here. :)

Gosh... the never ending people ~:| - Don't get lost dude.

LB and Mun Wai

So, a short post to wrap up everything, I hope you all have enjoy the whole trip series so far. I guess I like this trip a lot. (Al thought everyone has experience the "sour leg" during the trip - but I guess that is included in the trip package anyway ;) ) It is an eye opener for me understanding how Japanese culture + their working attitudes. (As well as their life styles, cities, views...and weather). I guess I just love every peace of it. :) I hope that I will have a chance to revisit again to this country of the rising sun. (And also... manage to complete my small tiny project on getting a portrait shoot for each of the trip member for the whole trip - thanks to everyone for being sporting and allow me to snap a photos of you in this trip) ;) Thanks a bunch. And also to our organizer, Mun Wai and Alex, without the hardwork of your planning, organizing on everything before and during the trip. This trip will not be possible! (Applause and Kudos to both of you  *clap*  *clap*  *clap* ) :"D

LB here on the bridge :)

Yes, bokeh-licious for you. ;) - I will be back again. :"D

Anyway, the final day photo gallery is available here. I guess I will rest early tonight. There will be back to back meeting tomorrow starting from 8am - 10am. Hope that you all will have a great day tomorrow. Night. :)
