Osaka Day 2

I went to neaby Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ Bank (such a long name! because of banks' merging to become a world competitive mega bank) to open a bank account. It didn't take long time, so I decided to go to a shopping centre, 5 minutes north of the bank. On my way home, I biked to my grandparents' grave to pray and tell them that I am home. The cemetery, where my grandparents' grave is, is located right west of one of the Japan's oldest and famous rugby stadium, Hanazono Rugby Stadium.

This is Mount Ikoma.

Later, my sis asked me to pick my younger niece in a kindergarten class. I had a bike to ride, but I decided to walk through my old neighbourhoods. As you can see, this is a part of my good, old, industrial, hardworking, blue collar town, Higashiosaka.

I asked my niece, M if she walks home sometime, but she said she rarely walk home with her mother. I made her walk a little too long way for a kindergarten, maybe. When she got home, she kept saying she was tired. She played Othello with me for a bit.

Later night, my old friend, R, called me. He took me to his favourite pub in Osaka city centre, neighbouhood called, Honmachi. We had food and drinks and were chatting untill 2 in the morning.
