Japan - quickly rearranged - the plan is made in a bar

It's time to stay in one place for a week. I've already discarded the original plan to go to the island.

So, after a kind invitation from a friend, I'm staying in Osaka and living with her parents. A real homestay, with a traditional house, food, and customs.
Shoes off in the guest room.
Special shoes for the toilet - a couple for everyone.

They're always perfectly positioned at the entrance to the fully automated toilet with a heated seat (which comes in handy in cool spring temperatures).
So I spend my time in the kitchen and wonder how to cook with chopsticks and stir in a pot, and I learn a dish here and there and helpful, albeit unnecessary, kitchen utensils - like a sesame dispenser - which I promptly buy and is already on its way to Germany by ship (only takes 3 months - @Susi: there's still a package to come).

In the bike museum, there's an old bike with a hammock as a seat. Pretty smart, I think.

In the port area, there's actually a lighthouse that doesn't fit the picture anymore and definitely can't perform its function anymore, as the built-up area has already expanded.

At the end of our homestay, we had a German/Swiss/Japanese dinner. Very delicious.

Thank you for the Japanese hospitality.
