We grabbed our large backpacks from the locker, jumped on a train, and headed to Osaka. We had to switch trains a few times, but there were signs for Universal Studios everywhere, so we knew we were going in the right direction! After about an hour we arrived at the Universal Citywalk. Citywalk is a huge outdoor mall with tons of stores, restaurants, shops, our hotel, and at the end of it is Universal Studios.
We entered our hotel and checked into our cozy room.

We went up to restaurant that is located on the top floor, so we could get a better view of Universal Studios.

We unpacked and then headed out to explore the Universal Citywalk.
There were a lot of options for dinner, but we decided to go with a classic: Wolfgang Puck! It was delicious!
After dinner we went back to our room and went over our plan for tomorrow (of course it's all typed out!):
In order to get Express Passes I had to be online at a specific time on a specific day. I was, but the Express Pass 7 sold out really quickly for our date. It's "Golden Week," in Japan so I knew it would be hard to get Express Passes. I was bummed I couldn't get the Express Pass 7 because that's the only pass that would get us on the Mine Cart Madness ride in Super Nintendo World. So I ended up getting the Express Pass 4. BUT a few days later a few more Express Pass 7's were released! I couldn't get a refund for the EP 4's, so we ended up with EP 7's and 4's! It's gonna be a great day!
