Osaka Styles
I made it to Takatsuki-Osaka. One connection was made from Vancouver: a short layover in San Francisco...lots of security....not much in the way of 'huge dudes with M16's' that I saw in Dallas after 9/11.

Osaka Kansai airport was where I touched down on this side of the Pacific..Interesting....right before I came here, I learned that Kansai is a)one of the few manmade structures visible from space..(great wall of course is also one) and b) the island is man made, itself. In fact, apparently they didn't quite know what they were getting into and realized after the airport was built that the whole island is sinking into the Pacific....slowly.

Anyways....i'm exhausted....must sleep.
