Sightseeing Recommendations, Hit Me

To: Crecente
From: Ashcraft

A friend of mine from high school landed in the country yesterday. (Hi, David!) He’s in Kyoto now, and my schedule, being as insane as it is, I won’t get to see him until Sunday. SOME FRIEND I AM.

Okay, quick! I live in Osaka, yeah, but I don’t get out of the house much. Heh. I have a rough idea of places to go, but I wanted to check: any recommendations for must-see places in Kansai? Any places that any of you readers dug?

What you missed last night
Racism in Tokyo
Sony taking action against The Drake’s airgun
Game consoles have dangerous things inside them
Nintendo complaining about six-year old fine
