How?

Felt like we weren't prepared at all
Didn't have a hotel, or ticket or any real clue of where we were going to go
But that turned out to be half the fun

Dave showed his crazy reckless side and skipped japanese class to come with me on the early bullet train, shinkansen.

And yes, it's super fast...
And yes, it's super cool....
And yes, I just called something super cool!
But if there's anything to call super cool, this might be it.

I was such a tourist! Taking photos, giggling! It cut the trip from 2 and a half hours down to 40 minutes and to be honest, it wasn't even the time or the speed. It just seemed so ... japanese ... so decadent. Really made the weekend something special.
