莫名其妙飛到聖地亞哥（飛到這兒才知道San Diego 中文叫聖地亞哥） 莫名其妙感覺好難過 難道我有的還不夠嗎？ 愛情，金錢，機會不缺 為何心中還是有莫名其妙的哀傷？為什麼還是會與別人比較？為什麼那麼容易陷入絕望？ （還好這種哀傷也是寫歌的衝動～一口氣就寫了一首芭樂歌....） 主啊，我難過。可是難過得廷開心的。聽起來矛盾嗎？這就是我。情緒矛盾？ 為什麼難過？你最知道。你最懂我。 (诗篇 42:5 ) 我的心啊！你为何沮丧？为何烦躁？要仰望上帝，因为我还要赞美祂——我的救主，我的上帝。

Day 2 in Osaka was actually mildly disappointing.

For starters, we went to try a famous shop beside the fish market in Osaka but it was closed. So we ended up going to the place beside it, which served beautifully presented but rather tasteless sushi. T and I taking a 'couplie' at the train station Then we headed to the Tenjinbashi mall Mochi.  T wanted the thin, grilled kind but we unsuccessfully tried to describe it to the old lady, who couldn't speak a word of English.

Nice Japanese locals who offered to take photos for us Wax Statue again!  Antique furni...

The 20th of Sept went by quite smoothly. Yep, that was the day of our wedding celebration in Taipei. I might put up a separate post about wedding celebrations in each of my home cities at a later stage (fingers crossed). What I will happily do is share about our belated honeymoon trip to Japan. We stayed in Osaka and travelled around the Kansai area in between, visiting Kyoto and Kobe. It was my first time to Japan and it was T's first time to the Kansai area (he had only been to Tokyo before). I was pretty excited, as Japanese cuisine tops my list. Could not wait to see and try everything in Japan! We arrived in Osaka around 2pm. Osaka is an hour ahead of Taipei (and I only found that out after realising the time on my watch lagged behind my  iPhone. Ha. Fail…). We took the airport limousine bus to the city, which pretty much landed us at Namba Station, where our hotel was situated.  Here are some snippets of Day 1! After leaving out luggage at the hotel,we s...
