Today was the start of Golden Week, and I spent most of the day preparing my apartment for the poker party on Sunday night. I walked to Max Value to do some shopping and picked up some tasty sausages to serve up for dinner. They were advertised as “Giant Weiners”, and they were quite big. They were about the same size as sausages available in California, so I was happy.
I ate some curry and rice for dinner, and around 9:30 in the evening Kuniko came by. She was staying the weekend for the poker party since Osaka is so far away. She brought some cookies that she bought from the Shin-Osaka station. There is a bakery there that always smells great, and I always seem to walk by after I’ve eaten dessert already. The cookies were great, and tasted just like I had hoped.
Tomorrow is some last minute shopping and then I’m going to relax and start enjoying my vacation.
