After day-trip to Kyoto, I went to see more of Osaka downtown.
Since it was getting dark, I thought it would be nice to enjoy nightscape of Osaka before dinner.

Umeda sky building, A.K.A. Sky Garden, is one of the iconic spots in Osaka.

Located 173m above the ground, Sky Garden was packed with tourists trying to enjoy the beautiful night skyline of Osaka.

After watching beautiful sight, I got hungry.
I went to the famous (or infamous due to some of the recent events) Ichibazushi.

With great luck, I guess, I didn't have to suffer from poor service nor excessive amount of wasabi in my sushi.
I had great time...

However, from next time on, I won't be visiting this sushi place.
I should not fear whether the cook plays childish pranks on something I eat.

I mean, I really enjoyed sushi at the time.
I just hope other Japanese restaurants don't pull a prank on their foods.

After sushi, I went to Naniwanoyu hot spring.
Took a long bath at the outdoor hot spring, and drank milky fruit juice.

Very refreshing.

The heavy rain stopped me from returning to hotel.
Might as well drink some sake watching the rain.

I really didn't want the night to be over, but it's time to come back home.
