At the end of March, I went to Osaka with my grandson, who had just graduated from elementary school. Until now, we had often participated in day trips together, but this time we discussed everything, including transportation arrangements, hotel, and itinerary, together, incorporating each other's wishes while also considering my health. The main event this time was undoubtedly the city tour of Osaka by open-deck bus, scheduled for the second day. My grandson, who loves vehicles, was thrilled and looking forward to it.
On the much-anticipated day, being unfamiliar with the area, we left the hotel early and arrived at the meeting place an hour ahead of time. I felt relieved that we could arrive early rather than wandering around and getting lost in an unfamiliar place. The bus departed as scheduled at 10:30 AM on the "Namba Route." We had the front seats, and the view from the double-decker bus was magnificent, with the refreshing morning breeze flowing through the bus.
Since it was my grandson's first time in Osaka, he was very excited, looking to the right and left as the guide explained things, his eyes sparkling with excitement. Since we usually live separately, it felt like a long time since I had seen him so happy and enjoying himself, and I was truly glad we came together.
Along the way, I couldn't help but take a picture of the cherry blossoms, which were about 30-40% in bloom. After departing from Umeda and passing through Midosuji, the 60-minute "Namba Route" tour ended in no time while we were excitedly sightseeing in Osaka. My grandson seemed to want to stay on the bus a little longer, but he was still very happy and satisfied.
3月末、小学校を卒業した 男の子の孫を連れて 大阪に出かけました。
今まで 日帰りツアーには 二人でよく参加していたのですが 今回は交通の手配から ホテル 日程など 全て孫と二人で話し合い お互いの希望を入れつつ 私の体調も考えた上で スケジュールを組みました。そして今回のメインイベントは 何と言っても 二日目に予定していた オープンデッキバスによる 大阪市内観光です。乗り物の大好きな孫は 大喜びで とても楽しみにしていました。そして 待ちに待った当日、地理に疎い私たちは 早めにホテルを出て 一時間も前に 集合場所に着いてしまいました。慣れない土地でうろうろと迷子になるよりは 早めに着くことが出来 ほっと一安心でした。
バスは予定通り10時30分 「なんばルート」が 出発しました。座席は一番前の席で 2階建てバスからの眺めは とても雄大で 朝のすがすがしい風が バスの中を通りぬけて行きました。
大阪が初めての孫は ガイドさんの説明に 右を見たり左側を見上げたりと とても興奮して 目が輝いていました。普段は別々に暮らしていますので このように 楽しそうに、嬉しそうな顔を見るのは 久々だった様な気がして 一緒に来て良かったと心の底から 嬉しく成りました。
途中3から4分咲きの 桜の花に 思わずシャッターを押してしまいました。
梅田を出発し 御堂筋を通り 大阪市内を興奮しながら観光している間に 60分の「なんばルート」は あっという間に終わってしまいました。
孫はもう少しバスに乗っていたかった様ですが それでも大喜びで 満足そうでした。

The view from the double-decker bus was amazing. It was very good to efficiently see the necessary places along the southern route in Osaka and hear various explanations that accompanied it. Next time, I would like to go to the northern route.
2階建てバスからの眺めは最高でした。
大阪の南ルートの所要な場所を効率よく見て回れてそれに伴ういろいろな説明も聞けて非常に良かったです。今度は北リートに行ってみたいです。
Thank you for riding with us.
I believe you will enjoy a different side of Osaka, starting with Osaka Castle on the North Course compared to the South Route.
Please be sure to experience the seasonal views at OSAKA SKY VISTA.
We sincerely look forward to your visit.
ご乗車いただきありがとうごじあました。
北コースは大阪城をはじめ、南ルートと違った大阪を楽しんでいただけると思います。
季節を感じられるOSAKA SKY VISTAにぜひご乗車ください。
心よりお待ち申し上げます。

Our trip was Osaka was a short one for our family of Seven and we did not really have all the time to visit all the tourist spots and areas. Since we were staying in the Namba area, we have decided to optimise our time within the Namba area and hence a conscious decision was made to take this Double Decker Bus Tour, and especially the South Course.
This one hour tour was with Japanese commentary by a friendly Japanese Tourist Guide. However non-Japanese speaking customers were given an iPod like devise and alternative English commentary was provided. This was a non Hop On Hop Off Tour hence true to the Japanese Punctuality Traditions, the tour started and ended right on time.
Seats on the Upper deck were also pre-determined hence there were no hustling and bustling amongst customers to get the best seats on the bus. The blankets provided by the tour provider were also convenient especially when the temperature was only around 8 degrees Centigrade at the time of our tour.
Thank you for having you take a OSAKA SKY VISTA the other day.
In addition, all the staff wait for the ride of "the north route"
Thank you.

I thought it would just be about seeing the illuminations, but it was better than I expected. The comfort of the open-deck bus, the highway drive, and the guide's announcements made the 45 minutes fly by. There were also items like blankets and knee covers, which helped with the cold. I would like to recommend this to acquaintances.
イルミネーションを見るだけと思っていたけど、予想以上によかったです。オープンデッキバスの快適さ、高速道路ドライブ、ガイドさんのアナウンスなどがあってあっという間の45分間でした。カイロやひざ掛けなどもあり、寒さも何とかなりました。知人に薦めたいと思いました。
Thank you for riding with us. We also appreciate your kind words. The current course will be available until January 17, and we will take a break in the latter half of January. We plan to operate a new route starting in February. We hope you will ride with us again. Thank you.
