Mino Park
Minoo Park is one of the parks in Osaka for autumn leaves viewing.
It was already very crowded when we arrived at the train station.
Along the way, there are food stalls selling various type of snacks. Although the stall owners were frying the maple leaves, there was a 'Sold Out' sign.
The park was very crowded with locals and tourists. They were smiling, chatting, and just in general happy mood. I reached an epiphany that I should just enjoy myself just as the locals do (I had been quite perturbed by the crowds at some tourist spots). We continue walking along the pathway towards the waterfall.
The waterfall came into view.
The fall was not high or impressive but it added to the beauty of the surrounding autumn leaves landscape.
We walked around to take photos and enjoy the surrounding with the rest of the crowd. I have been a bit 'bothered' or 'disappointed' with the over-crowding at the various scenic spots. As I looked at the local visitors admiring and enjoying the waterfall scenery, it suddenly dawn on me that I shall just enjoy the journey and sightseeing like the locals. They are able to share their enjoyment with the rest of us, and thus I shall be appreciative.
We made our way back to the train station for a ride back to Osaka.
