Osaka Sky Building

So one weekend, long long ago… Actually more like 2 weeks ago or something – I went to the Osaka Sky Building.
You: “What’s that Uncle Jace?”
Me: “Well… look at the picture I posted below…”


Now what’s completely bizarre about this building (more bizarre than me being your uncle) is that you can ride an elevator nearly to the top, and the elevator shaft is outside and MADE OF GLASS! So you can see everything around you. Then you can opt to leave, or throw some yen at some important people (aka “buy a ticket”) to then take an escalator further up (also made of glass), then you actually reach the roof of the building and you get an awesumo look-see around.
But before we went up, there was this little garden thingy at the foot of the building. Here are some snaps:




Unfortunately the day was a bit overcast, so the view wasn’t as stunning as it could be, but still pretty cool. I think the bad weather was the only thing that rendered the view just short of amazing (like my face). I plan on going again to watch the sunset on what would hopefully be a clear day, and i’ll write another post then. But you guys judge, pics and vids galore!














I was also planning on posting a cool video, but I screwed up the majority of my shots because of some gay setting i accidentally set my phone onto, and so here’s one of the only really good clips I have. When I go back again i’ll be sure to take more video (at the right resolution) and i’ll make a better video then.
Ciao for Now!
