Checking out of our kimonos and hopping on a train again, this time to Kobe City. About 30 minute train ride west of Osaka. The reason for picking Kobe for our last two days in Japan was that the hotel prices was half of what they were in Osaka. Again we arrived the city without doing much research beforehand. And what a nice surprise. Our hotel, Hotel Crown Palais Kobe, were located in a great shopping area. We could walk inside to several of the big shopping malls in the Higashikawaskicho area. Right next to the Kobe train station and a lot of great restaurants by the sea. Our friends from the NoMadFamily are going home soon and got to do som serious shopping. Us traveling with carry on luggage had to hold back a little. 
Going out for dinner, lots and lots of nice restaurants close by the hotel.
On our way to the Kawasaki World.
The Kawasaki world was a Eldorado for big and small children.
Both Bos and Lucas tried the flight simulator. Robots and train simulators made the day for the kids.
One for the great restaurants by the sea.
Last night in Kobe. Hope to come back to this place one day.
Goodbye dinner with the NoMadFamily in the Oyster Bar. They are traveling to Singapore, we are heading to Seattle. Thank you so much for wonderful days in Japan Stine, Paul, Leon and Jack!
