Animeal
After all that walking, the Animeal café, an animal café where the animals wander around you. Ducks, a capybara, dogs, cats. Entry and food for the animals came to ¥7,360.





The dogs were the best part. Huskies, a Bernese, a golden.






There’s a photo booth printout as a souvenir.

Then the cats upstairs.









Udon, unagi and takoyaki
Late lunch at the food street in Shinsaibashi OPA: udon and an unagi bowl (¥2,588).


And to finish the day, takoyaki in Dotonbori.


Tomorrow: the Shinkansen to Fukuyama, and a car. Onward to Shikoku!
