WE'RE OFF TO JAPAN

 We leave this morning for Osaka, Japan: You can vicariously follow our trip through this blog.  I hope to this time have few more videos.  I bought an OSMO Pocket 3 video camera. We will first be staying at the Osaka Marriott Miyako Hotel.  Read about our  previous visit in November of 2023 .  Our hotel is on floors 38 to 57 in the 60 story Abeno Harukas, the tallest building in Osaka. Then, on to the 2025 Osaka Expo: We will then take the Shinkansen from Shin-Osaka Station to Shin-Yokohama Station, a train ride of two hours.  We will need to transfer to Yokohama Station so that we can walk to the  Sheraton Yokohama Bay Hotel , where we have stayed many times.  In Japan, it is traditional to just transfer any large suitcase from one hotel to the next for a reasonable cost.  This hotel sits on top of a very large shopping mall that connects to the train station. Then, 16 days on the Oceania Riviera. We have 5 days to spend in Vancouver....
