  • Arrival at Nara

    Haven’t been to Nara since our first visit to Japan in 2003.

  • Gokuri bonus unlocked

    Found Gokuri grapefruit (and grape) last night.

  • It’s Nara. Oh deer!

    The final day in Japan is usually the worst. Leaving the hotel as late as possible, last minute shopping and a whole lot of anxiety about the flight ahead meaning no appetite and a desire to curl up and sleep. I don’t want that day, so I suggest we go to Nara, a single half-hour…

  • Tennoji and Shinsaibashi

    Arrived in Shin-Osaka and caught another train to Tennoji. Spent the rest of the afternoon shopping, then took the subway to Shinsaibashi, where it was all about Chinese shopping. Glad to return to Tennoji for dinner.

  • On the Hikari

    On the Hikari Shinkansen to Tokyo. Had to run to make it due to too much shopping. Mt Fuji is obscured by cloud.

  • From Tokyo to Tennoji

    It is now time to return to Osaka. We farewell our beloved Shinjuku Prince hotel and join the morning crush of crowds at the station.

  • Shinagawa transit

    At Shinagawa station having breakfast before our Shinkansen to Osaka.

  • Pinball

    Old pinball and arcade games at the Takoyaki Museum opposite Joypolis. Should have skipped the latter for this.

  • Joypolis

    Somewhat joyful.
