Another interesting slice of life is how you want people about danger or other things. Just thought it would be fun to share some of the ones we ran across. First a detour back, to Oslo. A warning of sorts…that struck me with the assumptions this one was making and it did not appear to…

I had not heard about Japanese Manhole covers before we got here but they are amazing. I started noticing them and took some pictures. It is indeed a whole thing – Japan Manhole Cover Society (if you want to really dive in). Here are some of the ones we came across: We want to the…

We were much better at navigating the three city blocks of underground malls to get there this time. From there we headed to Osaka castle. The first cool…

January 12, 2024 Today we started out questing for a western style breakfast. While we got west in a way the closest we could get was Eggs N’Things, a Hawaiian breakfast chain. It was good and filled the craving for the most part. We did not get any SPAM. From there we ventured to the…

January 11, 2024 We decided that the focus of Osaka was food and doing things. We signed up for some different tours and experiences and have been eating whatever we see. As we walked around we saw this restaurant. We thought it was a subtle indication of what they serve. We started at Teppanyaki Toyota…
