Huge Chicken Satellite

Lately I spend my free time looking for manholes. Of course this only lasts as long as there are cities within reach of Steel Stallion II’s powerful cylinders.
Until now this resulted in the harvesting of the manholes of all surrounding cities. So I wanted to go a bit further this time. To get these three it took me around 3 hours.

And then I wanted to go to Suita. Arriving was no problem, but then I saw the huge… er… chicken with a satellite as a head (don’t how else to describe it) and I wandered a bit away from my route to enter the 70’s expo site.

I’m not complaining, because this a huge oasis of green and silence in Osaka (despite monorail, highway and train rails nearby), but if you see this, you have to question the economical advantages of an expo… or whether they are there at all. Everything but the central park was desolated and it was a long time ago that I have seen so little people in one spot in Osaka.
…
And of course you have to question the chicken. I do understand that someone makes something ridiculous like that, but I have a harder time to understand who approved such a design. Nevertheless, it’s huge, memorable and now a landmark in Osaka.

…
and then I tried to get back. Only searching for the correct route took me approximately 2 hours, and I wasn’t even closer to home.
Well, in autumn I wouldn’t mind, but in winter temperatures really start to plummet around 3:30, so I must have broken my the world record of speed cycling home. Or at least my own record.
Sitting happily at home, because this guy has three new coloured manholes, hehe.
