Carlos is felling a bit better, the antiviral medicine is working for him; therefore we decided to go visit more places. On December 27 we took the Shinkansen to Osaka. We arrived late in the evening and went for a walk around Dotonbori, one of the most touristic destinations in Osaka. One thing to note is the oversized signs on the restaurants indicating what they sell. We were also impressed with the gaming stores, which are far from anything we had seen before. We thought the ones in Taiwan were big, but the ones here are the next level!
In the morning of December 28 we went to the Osaka Castle and walked on the park grounds, unfortunately the castle was closed for the holidays.
In the early evening we went to the Umeda Sky Building, where we had a great view of Osaka. We stayed until it got dark to get a night view of the city.
