Discover Osaka: Namba District

Day 5

Namba District
Osaka, Japan

After breakfast at Shinonomesu ryokan, we packed our bag and traveled back by train to our hotel in Shin-Osaka. Our plan is to spend the rest of the afternoon in Rinku Premium Outlets.

To get to Rinku town, we had to passed by Namba, regarded as the center of the so-called Minami (South) area of Osaka. It is most famous for Glico Man and of course, the Kani Doraku Crab. Both of which are located in Dotonbori canal.

When DH and I went to Japan, we each packed 1 small suitcase inside a bigger suitcase. At the Customs Area, the inspector requested to open one of our suitcases. He was puzzled by what he saw, no wonder he asked us about it. DH curtly replied, "My wife likes to shop." I think that answer was good enough because the officer did not ask anymore questions and immediately zippered back our luggage ; p

Anyway, one of the many things I bought was this Coach Parker Leather Medium Carryall in Rinku Premium Outlets in Osaka. Isn't she a beauty?

I have 2 other Coach bags. Both of which were bought from Woodbury Common Premium Outlet in New York in 2008. I already wrote an entry on how to spot a fake Coach, you can read it here. So, this entry is all about the details of this bag.
