Nice. Did you go to UK Wildcats cafe while you were out there? That was on my itinerary but we didn’t make it

@68degreesorless Tell me more…

@SourPower dude!! What an awesome experience. Morgan says you look “giddy!” I’ll have to agree. Crazy congrats on the wedding and the honeymoon journey!! Keep the photos coming.
In the easy chair with my boots on, melted whiskey in my hand. Could'na been asleep for more than three hours...time to go to work again...

@68degreesorless unfortunately not, went straight from the shop to catch a Hanshin Tigers game though!

@Mizmazzle thanks Mark! Kanpai brother!

@68degreesorless it was incredible, a true cultural experience! Unfortunately it was a super slow game and Chunichi won 1-0, but the passion and interplay between the fans and teams was amazing to witness. Hard to beat 2 fresh Asahi draft beers for $10 USD!

@SourPower said in Osaka (JP):
Made the pilgrimage!
The Works Osaka is tucked away in a quiet neighborhood surrounded by Motorcycle shops. Had a great time meeting Kenta and admiring his GAH and IH gems. Managed to score the new shop exclusive tee and patch!
Super cool pics dude ! I'm jealous i missed that tshirt exclusive when i've been there in July !
That bring great travel memories... -
@SourPower how are you finding the hospitality and treatment as a tourist? I've heard Japanese attitudes towards tourism have changed a lot recently due to visitor misbehavior. Do you speak Japanese? It seems like maybe you're not having that issue would be great.

@jdwaid We found Japan very welcoming and the people very kind and polite.

@jdwaid no negativity or issues thus far! I have definitely been practicing my Japanese and trying to interject some more advanced phrases when possible, people have shown noticeable excitement and appreciation towards the effort. We have also had some lovely conversations in English with our bartenders! I was telling my wife that’s one profession where you pick up English because of the fact that 99% of spirits and classic cocktails use the Latin Script.
