We put our plans from last Thursday into action and hiked towards the amusement park.

Today we’ll show you what we buy and eat here.

Today we tested the train (including a change) and looked further north at the hills. We also found a beautiful little coffee shop with an exquisite vegetarian meal, delicious muffins and brownies and a good coffee.

Today we left our cozy suburb and entered Osaka’s heart. It was loud, it was shrill and we didn’t have internet.

It’s Sunday and so the mean Austrian goes hiking. Since we already live halfway on the outskirts, we aimed for the Onji Shrine, a good hour’s walk away.

In the most beautiful sunshine, we headed north today to get to know another part of our hood. We probably gave an employee a real shock.

After a two-day journey with hardly any sleep, the first day was: sleep in! Then we went exploring and shopping.

The outward journey took place in two stages. Since we didn’t trust the Deutsche Bahn, we drove to Frankfurt am Main a day early to stay at the airport hotel there. The next day we went to Osaka via Hong Kong.
