Golden Week / Children's Day

 Hope everyone's having a fun Golden Week!  We decided to start the holiday with a visit to the Osaka Aquarium ( 海遊館 /Kaiyukan ).  Going to such a popular sightseeing spot on the first day of a long national holiday was a bit of a mistake!  We had a good time, despite the crowds...
 After that, we walked around the harbor front, looking at the boats.  We were delighted to see huge carp streamers ( 鯉幟 / Koinobori ) flying above the Santa Maria harbor cruiser...
Which reminds me: Today is Children's Day in Japan.  Enjoy your Children's Day!
