Day 11: Chilling in Osaka until the evening to take the Orange Ferry for the Shimanami Kaido. I stopped by the Nikon Service Center. I bought a new mirrorless camera in Morioka to replace my good ol' DSLR (sadly, I couldn't get it earlier to take photos of the Sakura with it, damn you Amazon JP).

I got it at a good price at Bic Camera, but there was a catch when I tried to use it: the camera firmware just had Japanese. Prevent grey market, I guess. Luckily, they can add it, but you have to pay 35 USD. Still not a bad deal. And of course, they had gacha. I got a mini D850 and a 24-70mm f2.8.

Then in the evening, I went on a 12 km bike ride to the port to get on the Orange Ferry, repeating what I did last year. This time I used Google Maps instead of Apple Maps. The route was busier, but it was more straightforward with fewer trucks. To get on a bridge, I had to do a 5-story loop.
