Last fall, September '98, I took a journey from Tokyo to Osaka by night bus which is more like NIGHTMARE BUS for those of you who are over 5'2"(157 cm or so) or who are not masters of yoga! I do not recommend this method of transportation for the sane or moneyed. I, however, am neither.
Why did I torture myself in this manner? I wanted to get to Kishiwada, a city near Osaka, to enjoy the Danjiri festival and visit a small taxidermy museum. Check out what I saw!(Without twisting yourself like a pretzel!)
