When in Japan
Wear the provided pyjamas
First take
One thing I’ve noticed in Japan is “uniformity” in almost everything. When trucks are parked at a warehouse they’re all perfectly aligned. Houses are all the same size and shape in an area. No one wants to stand out or have attention drawn to them.
Crazy fast trains
Bullet Train to Tokyo
David and I boarded our first bullet train today. 285 km/hr from Osaka to Tokyo. Amazing experience.
Osaka Arrival
After arriving on JQ 23 we had a really quick transit through immigration and security at Osaka airport. We got the train into Osaka after giving our bags to a luggage transport service. Fingers crossed we’ll see our bags in two days. That train looks like something from Flash Gordon and I’ve never felt so lost or out of place as I do here. Only day one.
