Hi all, I've revised my itinerary and would like your final input. I'd like to think we are fit (running 40-50km/30miles each week), so walking a lot shouldn't be an issue but of course, we will make sure to rest up. If possible, please let us know what we should remove or add onto our itinerary.
Note: just the two of us are going.
For Osaka, should we add Shinsekai and Shitenoji Temple? Or remove something to add it? Where should I fit Osaka Aquarium? Please do let me know what your thoughts are. I'd love to make changes, as we will be heading to Japan in a few days. Thanks a bunch!
