May 24 cont...
I got back to Tokushima, collected my bags, said goodbye and heartfelt thank yous to Takashi San and left for the final time. I had paid for that night in advance but figured that The Agnes and Takashi San had gone above and beyond their call of what could be expected from them on behalf of accommodating me, my baggage and parcels over the past month so I left without asking Takashi San for a refund.
I quickly went up to TOPIA to see if Claire San was there but she wasn’t so I bought a bus ticket for Osaka and went to the Platform to wait.
I had half an hour so I dragged out the contact details for the Youth Hostel I had stayed at at Shin Osaka and made a reservation.
Sorted!
I then quickly ducked into a nearby CD store and bought Bennie K as a momento of Mayumi San and the last days of my trip.
Apart from briefly going over bridges, it seemed we were perpetually driving through huge cities that seemed actually just one continuous city for 4 hours.
I enjoyed the familiarity of arriving back at Osaka Station, knowing where to go and what to do.
I carried on to Shin Osaka Station then onto the Hostel.
I booked in then went to my room.
