[MMM]

I love Osaka... The Merry-go-round on the top of the Hep-5 building in Umeda is quite a site.

Probably the only bar in Japan to serve Hoegaarrden beer is a couple blocks up the street (I wish I could remember the name... it's in the B1 of a brand new "shopping building", less than 5 minute walk from Hep-5 alone the Hankyu line, I think).

Expo-Land just reopened after some people were mangled on a ride a couple months ago (one dies and one lost and arm, I think).

Ame-mura in Shinsaibashi/Namba is pretty much must see.
