Osaka with Akihrio

I spent a Sunday in an area of Osaka called Kyobashi with my friend from archery club, Akihiro.


We arrived together at Kyobashi station, and rode his bike to his home. Here is a shot of the bike area. Akihiro took some time to locate his bike because there were so many.


There was a monk who was sitting quietly and accepting donations at the station.


I gave him 10 yen, and snapped a picture.


Then, I wanted a shot together.


Then, of course, Akihiro wanted one.


We proceeded to Akihiro's house. Here is a picture of the living room from the kitchen.


Here is a shot of Akihiro's room.


On the wall in Akihiro's room is this poster he made about his favorite band, Whitesnake.


We then played some "catch-ball" at a field by his house. Here is a view from that field, later on that night.


Here is a shot of an apartment opposite that view.


Akihiro, his family and I then went to a yakiniku (cooked meat) restaurant. Akihiro and I had some strange conversations on his bike on the way over there.


Here is a shot from inside. Even though I ate too much, I had a good time, so I plan on visiting them again.
