Somewhere in the middle of England. These brick houses are very atmospheric. And imagine that the whole street with the same houses. It was great to draw one of them ;)

Meat eating, Cosplay and Dan Carter in Kobe

31st August 2018

We chose to make the trip to Kobe as All Black Legend Dan Carter has moved to finish his rugby career with the Kobe Steelers. We made it to the stadium on a damp Friday evening to catch some glimpses of Dan warming up and coaching some of the players. As this was one of the first matches of the season he wasn’t playing - booo. But he was on the sidelines in a waterboy vest - running onto the pitch to coach throughout the game. It was not a particularly convincing win by the Kobe Steelers over the Panasonic Shining Arcs but a nice opportunity to see a legend in the flesh.

Our accommodation,  Guesthouse Maya, was in a great location and was part of the reason we loved Kobe so much. Nada the area we stayed in was fun and quirky. We were within walking distance of the sightseeing spots and some great cafes and bars.

Our first tourist spot was the Natural disaster centre. This used multimedia to share the harrowing impact of the 1995 earthquake. Videos, reconstructions and eye witness testimonies created a shocking and sobering picture of the disaster. There was exhibits showing the rebuild process and the emergency pack every household should have. 

In sharp contrast to the disaster centre we then went down to the harbour where a dance festival was happening. I am always impressed by the energy, enthusiasm and the amount of costume changes these dancers fit into their routines.

In the evening we headed to see what is considered to be one of the best night views in Japan. 

A very impressive sight if a little soggy.

We then went to indulge in one of the city’s most famous exports Kobe Beef.

Our final day took us to Kitano- cho. This is an area of the city where foreign merchants settled when Japan began trading with the world in the second half of the 19th century.  Quite a few of these houses are now museums inspired by their former tenants. For instance there is a French House and an English House. 

Unsurprisingly there is a working authentic pub in the English house. It is also currently hosting a Sherlock Holmes exhibit. 

We are in Japan, so of course their is an opportunity to dress up as Sherlock Holmes.

It gets better...

Once Rob had tried ALL of the costumes on we headed to China town.

We played spot the spiderman and ate some great food.

Our final stop was Nunobiki falls which is literally just outside the station. 

We had an amazing time in Kobe. It completely exceeded our expectations. We will be back as there is plenty we still need to see.
