The Snow Monkeys, yeah, they're amazing. Would have never made it without a working simcard, directions were way to obscure. After hanging out up there for a while we opted to hike back to the station and absorb the scenery instead of racing around.
In this onsen is a naked guy in public view of everyone going to the 'main' onsens. A snow monkey happend to join him in his onsen
The real monkeys?
Snow Monkey park is in the top center of this photo; not a bad location
This little guy had forgotten where the food was?

We're now down/across in Osaka. Having heard it was more youthful/edgier than Tokyo we had to check it out. Also using as a gateway for Nara's Deer Park. Osaka Station and the area around it amazing endless underground maze lasting 6+ city blocks with various name changes and buildings above each having their own section. Out on the street there's often no way to cross the road due to a lack of lights as well as added fences. Not a good place if claustrophobic. Google maps have a good lock on the place, so it's been easy enough to get about.
The city certainly has a younger crowd and the city itself seems newer, with many more top end/designer stores. A nice contrast and re-charge point.
