Day Two in Japan(1) 🌾

I had planned to leave the house at 9:00 AM, but because I slept so poorly last night, I didn't wake up until 10:00 😴. After a hasty wash, I rushed to catch the train directly to Kobe. The weather was absolutely perfect! ☀️ 🌺🌇 My stomach was growling, so I went straight to have some Wagyu beef bowl 🍱. Surprisingly, I had to wait in line, which was really a torture. But sipping the warm, soothing black tea was such a comfort. 🌺🌇 The bowls of rice topped with beef were incredibly delicious, and the quality of the meat was visibly outstanding. No wonder it's Kobe beef! 🌟 After the meal, I headed to the Kitano Ijinkan, which turned out to be a collection of old Western-style houses and some exquisite little shops. I took some photos and bought some really fresh cherry tomatoes and the so-called "life-changing toast" from a small shop before setting off to the Hyogo Prefectural Museum of Art. 🏺 🍰🍃 I spent a leisurely time there, taking photos, exploring, and even resting for a while. The tranquil atmosphere of the museum was so relaxing, and I could even catch a glimpse of the sea. It was so delightful! 🌊 On my way back, I had planned to try the cheesecloth cheesecake I saw online, but the line was just too long. 🌺🌇 So, I went for the strawberry daifuku and some tea instead. Along the way, I passed by a shop selling handmade adzuki bean cakes, which looked really good. I bought one to try, but it was too sweet halfway through. The strawberry daifuku was also very sweet and a bit pricey, but I finished it anyway. 🍰🍃 Out of curiosity, I also tried a kudzu-based dessert that was like a jelly. It was slippery and surprisingly good! 😋 #KitanoIjinkan #Kobe 🍓🍰🍃
