As mentioned, here is an attempt to present a pictorial account of my trip to Osaka and Kyoto, Japan.
True, a picture does paint a thousand words but don't you agree that sometimes, the right caption and appropriate explanation enhances and brings more meaning to the pictures? Feel free to skip the lengthy description if you think it is too wordy.

Someone once gave my brother a piece of advice: A lousy arrival on the first day can affect the entire trip. Bearing this in mind, we decided to take a late-night cab from Kansai International Airport to Hotel Monterey La Soeur, Osaka. Despite the language barrier, taxi drivers in Japan are very oblinging and professional. No doubt we were initially reluctant to splurge 15,050 yen as taxi fare but considering that it was already past midnight and the driver had already given us some discount (as compared to the amount stated on the meter), we felt grateful to arrive safely and comfortably after almost an hour's drive.
Hotel La Soeur Osaka is a business hotel situated in the city. The service is splendid and the entire hotel is very strategic and clean. I would certainly want to stay here again.

| If you're going to stay in a hotel for 6 days, the toilet has better be well equipped |
 |
| From body wash to shampoo to face and hand wash, to toothbrush, comb, facial sponge, etc. It didn't have a shower cap, though. |
That was the first night. Here is the link to the hotel if you are interested: http://www.hotelmonterey.co.jp/lasoeur_osaka/
