27 ottobre. Primo e unico giorno passato interamente ad Osaka.
Esterno. Giorno. Soleggiato.

Appunti, mappe, link, mail riguardanti il viaggio erano tutti in forma elettronica. Per lo più "nella nuvola".

I mezzi pubblici sono in genere un'alternativa più che efficace.

Se proprio uno volesse noleggiare una macchina, magari per inoltrarsi nelle zone rurali, attenzione alla questione patente.

Oishinbo (o Oishimbo)
[美味しんぼ? - si traduce più o meno con "Giornale saporito"].
E' un manga dedicato alla cucina giapponese, di recente tradotto in inglese.

Le storie sono piuttosto buffe.
Ruotano attorno alla sfida tra il protagonista Yamaoka Shirō, giornalista che si occupa di cucina, e la sua nemesi - nonchè padre - Kaibara Yūzan, famoso connaisseur del gusto e della cucina tradizionale.

Incredibilmente, per la connessione internet il tempio zen e` meglio organizzato dei due precedenti alberghi: quattro computer a disposizione dei pochi ospiti.
Sotto altri aspetti ovviamente e` piu` spartano: bagno in comune, stanze divise dai vicini da porte scorrevoli di carta.
