SPRING BREAK IN JAPAN - OSAKA.

Last Monday, we flew to Kansai direct from Kota Kinabalu with Malaysia Airlines. They have  resumed their 2 x weekly flight utilizing B737-800 aircraft.. 
The aircraft took off on schedule at 08:15 and Mt. Kinabalu came into view as the aircraft cleared the first layer of clouds.   
 Approaching Kansai International Airport for landing just before 13:45.
Landed Kansai at 13:55. CIQ clearance was prompt.as there was no other traffic. There was no crowd at the arrival concourse since it's not the peak hours..   
We took the Airport Limousine bus to Osaka city - it's almost an hour's drive to the bus terminal in Namba where our hotel was located.
 Feeling hungry after checking in our hotel, we had our afternoon tea with this "Wagyu" (Japanese beef) sandwich. 

For dinner, we selected a small "Izakaya" (a typical Japanese restaurant) for dinner. The food was fresh and delicious.    
 Fresh bean curd.
i
"Sashimi" combination.
 Sardin sashimi with seaweed and spring onion.
A hot "pork nabe" to end the dinner.
 Before saying good night to my Japanese friends.
