It certainly does, however, you should see the list of bars - the evenings will be even busier.

Luckily, I have about 4 days to over-stuff my carry-on allowance. Limiting myself to "must have" items will be the challenge.

Thanks @DrPat - looks great. It's now on the map!

If you're headed to IH in Osaka, y2 isn't that much further. You need a reservation though.

Great stuff, thanks @pechelman!

@68degreesorless - I just noticed your profile picture!

I have just bought tix to see the Carp play in Hiroshima in April.

From what I have read, the home fans are very committed. I am looking forward to it.

Have you seen them play?

[68degreesorless]

@Bridger No, I was there in November so no baseball unfortunately. I would love to go back and see them some day. We made a day trip to Hiroshima and I was smitten by their logo, swag, and the story behind the team. From what I hear, they are quite competitive despite having a lower budget and small hometown. Enjoy the game!

[Bridger]

Shame you didn't make a game @68degreesorless

It does sound like the team has an interesting history. I get the impression they are almost crowd funded for lack of corporate sponsorship.

I have seen a few games in Tokyo, but keen to experience a different atmosphere with diehard fans.
