The last day of the travel course starting in Kobe, visiting the Osaka Expo, and returning home~!

#Travel Course On the third day, I moved from Fukushima to Kobe, checked in at 8 o'clock, and spent the next day in ho-kang mode, eating and rolling around alone at the hotel until 8 o'clock. The bedding was comfortable, so I slept well and woke up refreshed. The weather was cloudy, and I faced the ocean of Kobe. I participated in breakfast. French toast, eggs Benedict, omelets, etc. are delivered to your seat when you order them, which is convenient. The same goes for tea. The drink bar also has sparkling wine, and you can pay an additional fee for morning nama beer. I checked out and went to Osaka Station. I met Okure 7 minutes. Since there are coin lockers in the station, I left my suitcase in the coin locker without going outside, and then took the JR to Bentencho Station. It was crowded from here. I arrived at Yumeshima Expo Station at 10:07, 7 minutes later than 10 o'clock due to the delay and crowds. Go to the line according to the control. There are separate lines for 09:00, 10:00, and 11:00, but there is no separate confirmation procedure. The East Gate (Yumeshima Station) has a total of 27 entrance gates, and PET bottle (Kkan-geo) inspection and X-ray security inspection are conducted outside. Although there is a roof, it is outdoors, vulnerable to wind, rain, and high temperature and humidity, so I waited in line for about 40 minutes and finished entering around 10:47. The pavilion reservation was only for Gundam 2 months ago. After entering, I quickly walked around the ring for about 30 minutes for adaptation training and got used to the scene. At 12:00, I made an additional reservation for one of the pavilions that was empty on the day. I visited two places that I could see without a reservation in the middle, and then I recharged with wagyu skewers and nama beer at the Osaka food court building that followed. For those who don't want to walk, there is also a shuttle bus that runs for 400 yen per ride or 1,000 yen per day, with 6 stops. As is well known, the exhibition hall is a large wooden structure shaped like a donut, and it feels like an amusement park. Since it is allotted 4 hours, it moves in a short and thick plan. At 12 o'clock, I will visit the Blue Ocean Dome Pavilion for about 30 minutes. Until the next Gundam entry time, I will look around the lower part of the loop for about 30 minutes. It is a moment that makes me think that the exhibition hall is very well-made in a Japanese way. I will experience the summer nights once more when I travel to Kobe in June and Kobe in July with the night opening. I will enter according to the Gundam reservation time. I will move to 5 spaces in sequence. I had a similar experience at Huis Ten Bosch. It is not an experiential type, and I just see it with my eyes, so it does not really fit the concept of going up to space by elevator. 5D Flex was realized more than 10 years ago, but it lacks liveliness due to the lack of movement. However, it is a fantastic space that Gundam enthusiasts will enjoy. You will be given the privilege of taking Gundam pamphlets and Gundam rear-facing photos. It takes about 25 minutes to walk from Gundam to the East Gate Exit where Yumeshima Station is, and at the time of reservation, I didn't know there was a shuttle in the venue, so I made a reservation for the return flight to Osaka Station at the West Gate where there is a bus stop. You can easily make a reservation through the app called Kansaimasu, and you can choose a place with a convenient route. If you don't have the app, you can also make a reservation through the website. The fare is more than twice as expensive as the train, but it is fast and convenient. After finishing the Expo tour, the last schedule is afternoon tea at the new Shinsang Hotel in Umegi-ta that opened 3 weeks ago. I made a reservation on the day when restaurant reservations opened a month before the hotel opened, and the price dropped. 😍 It is said that it was set from 12,000 yen to 10,000 yen. So I added 3,000 yen and got a glass of champagne. I also got a 10% discount on the final payment. I can see the Umeda Sky Garden and the Intercon from the high-rise view toward the main street. The savory is great, and the scones and clotted cream are delicious. There are no notifications at all on the JR West app. That means there are no accidents. If there is an accident, the alarm goes off right away. That's why I stay until 4:30. I take the Haruka at 5:03 and get my ticket around 6:15. It departs at 7:35, so I go straight to the lounge. Since it's the north wing, I leave around 6:55 and take the monorail over. I choose gluten-free for my in-flight meal. Thank you.
