At Kodani Service Area. We stick our heads on comic foreground and took a picture.

サービスエリアで昼食は、ハムチーズサンド。パンはいつでも大好きです!!!
I had ham and cheese sandwich for lunch at the service area. I love bread!!!
Hot, hot, WASABI! Wasabi products.
わさび製品が売られていました。
Various kinds of creative key chains were sold as souvenirs.
それから、しばらく走って、福山サービスエリアでも休憩しました。バラ園併設です。ハート形の薔薇の花輪、すごい、と思ったら
Then we drove a while and had a rest at Fukuyama Service Area. There was a rose garden beside the area. Wow, there was a big rose heart shaped ring?!
Ah, they were artificial flowers…
There were many kinds of roses at the rose garden.
なんでか、志賀直哉、暗夜行路の碑が。
Daruma Doll key chain at the shop area.
So surprised!?
休み休み帰ったので、出発してから約9時間後に大阪市内入り。中之島、肥後橋あたりのビル群を見たら、ああ、帰って来た〜という気がしてホッとしました。とても充実した岡山、福岡ミニツアーでした。来てくださった方々に感謝します。noodles, ミラーレイクス、aaps、Dim Dam Donkey そしてスタッフのみなさま、おつかれさまでした!岡山、福岡、また行きたいです。このあとは、いよいよオーストラリア・ニュージーランドツアーが始まります。がんばるぞ!ツアーでお会いしましょう!
Took some rest, we arrived in Osaka around 7:00pm. Mostly 9 hours have passed after the departure at Fukuoka. I felt relax when I saw tall buildings around Nakanoshima, Higobashi area of Osaka. I had very good time during this mini tour to Okayama and Fukuoka. I thank to our fans who came to see our show and the cool bands, noodles, Mirrorlakes, aaps and Dim Dam Donkey and our tour crew. I want to come back to Okayama and Fukuoka. Our Australia/New Zealand tour will start soon. See you there!
