Autumn after typhoon

I remember when it was summer in Japan. The temperature would be around 32 - 34 Celsius. It was super hot and the air outside was uncomfortable. The sun was burning my head and my skin. My clothes was wet of my sweat. I was even sweating in the morning. I cannot survive a day without the air conditioner on (hello, bills and empty wallet!)

I forget when the spring was gone, but I do remember when the autumn came:

The sun was still shining a day before we went to Osaka, but mild rain was falling several times and there was a news about a huge typhoon somewhere near the Pacific Ocean that might attack Japan. But we had to go to Osaka. We went to Osaka by bus and our trip was nice as usual.

I love public transportation in Japan even though six-hour trip was boring.

We arrived in Osaka at around two in the noon, we went to our hotel right away, then we wandered around. Osaka is a busy city. There is nothing to see whenever we go to Osaka, and we almost look like "orang nyasar", wigwagging from Umeda station to Namba city or Dotonbori, standing on a bridge above the river in Dotonbori, watching tourist having their trip on a boat, and I on the slay admiring the Glico Man I don't know why. I always look for that guy every time we go to Dotonbori. Ah, I love Osaka more than Kyoto.

The look of a river in Dotonbori when we stand on the bridge above the river. Spot the Glico Man!

After wandering around, we went back to the hotel and we got a call from our bus agent. They told us that unfortunately they had to cancel our bus the next day due to a huge typhoon. Oh, well..

We had to choose between staying one more night in Osaka or went home using a ship. The ship would depart at 10 pm, by then, the typhoon had passed Osaka and it would be fine to sail home. After we got our money back, we decided to use a ship to take us home.

However, after the typhoon, the temperature was reduced. Welcome, Autumn!
