After a long flight from SFO to Taiwan, then into Osaka, I purchased a train pass from the kiosks.
In many asian countries, bikes are just about everywhere. You even see men with suits riding bikes.....which you never see in California.
I went to a market inside of Osaka station and they had plenty of prepared Japanese foods.
There is a district in Osaka named Dotonbori which is a huge shopping and eating area. The Glico photo on the building is probably one of the most photographed landmarks in the area.

I'm enjoying my time here so far as it is so much different than in the USA. Too bad I only know a few words/phrases in Japanese... Must study some more!
