For my first full day in Osaka, I woke up early and had breakfast at the hotel, then it was off to meet my friend Nabeela at Kuromon Market later that morning. It was my first time at Kuromon and while it was a weekend, it wasn’t as busy as I expected it to be.

I had a few hours before I was to meet Yumi to see the butai, so I made a mad dash into the shops and tried to buy as much as I could. Once I was at my limit, I dragged all our purchases back to the hotel, then went out again to meet Yumi at Shinjuku Station. Soon we…
