26th march osaka

The journey from.airport to the hotel proved tht despite only 12kg luggage it's still too much. Today's mission to find a post office.
After breakfast, an experience of funny fish and funny veg in soups....which i avoided and stuck to recognisable pineapple. I set out with a bag of clothes to find the post office....Google translate, a very patient lady and an hour later, clothes are in theory on their way back to the UK
The shops don't seem to open till 10...people queue to wait fir opening. The shops are on every level from cellar to skyscraper .there is a covered street as it is hot but then it's open to the side street which gives a breeze ...I wandered round the shops and discovered there was a canal and a cruise in
10mins so bought a ticket..
Mad experience but fun...
Found a place for lunch where Italian style bolognase was.with ham and cheese ..!
bk to the hotel where because I complained last night i was too hot.and didn' tsleep..iv now got the penthouse (to shut me up)had to pay the difference
It's amazing!
The concierge arranged for me to meet his friend at the sky tower ....i was able to jump the queue and have a personal guide via Google translate we had a lovely chat
