Jim and Joe gettin' sizzyruped up on the flight.



Arrival at Kansai International Airport in Osaka!!!



Getting settled at the hotel: ¥33,300 and a bar of Crunky - what else do you need?



Chikara took us out to Utage Shinahotei, an Izakaya-style restaurant where we ordered an array of different
appetizers to share. We got some different types of chickens-on-sticks, sausage dumplings, a stunning spread of raw tuna,
salmon, yellowtail, and octopus, and even french fries showed up.
At this point we knew we'd be eating OK on this trip.



Yes. Eating French fries with chopsticks.



Cougar Shuttle eatin some suckers.

 


Driving around Osaka at night.
