大阪城
Osaka Castle

First, I really should apologize. It's been a week since I've been to Osaka Castle, and I haven't posted anything about it at all.

まず、誤らなくてはだめ。大阪城には一週間前に行ったけど、全然話していない。

Here's some more awesome pictures to make up for it.

これ、かっこいい写真!

So anyway, this last week has been a week of days off. The 20th was Respect for the Aged Day, so Monday was an off day, and then the autumn equinox was on Thursday the 23rd, which means we get the day off. Considering all the free time that I had last weekend, then, it seemed an excellent time to go check out Osaka.

とにかく、先週は休みの日がたくさんあった。20日は敬老の日だったから、月曜日は休みだった。そして、秋分の日は木曜日、23日だったから、それも休みだった。暇な時間がたくさんあったから、大阪に行けるよ。

And yes, I know that that castle in the picture isn't "real". It was destroyed several times, actually, and the castle that exists today was rebuilt in modern times. Likewise, the interior is a modern museum, and bears absolutely no resemblance to a Japanese castle.

はい、はい、この城は本物ではない。何度も壊した。今日の大阪城は現代の物だ。そして、中は歴史の博物館だし、昔の日本の城じゃない。

But you know what? It doesn't matter. Because that castle looks really damn awesome.

でも、かまわない。この城はとてもかっこいいだもん。



I mean, come on! It's a freaking castle! Why can't the U.S. have any building that looks that cool?

城だよ!なぜアメリカにはこんなかっこいい物がないか。
