Waiting at Tokyo station for the Shinkansen bullet train to be cleaned by the maids in pink before our trip to Kyoto
AllieMark:
The trains are powered through overhead lines - reminded us of a souped-up SF Muni train
AllieMark:
Crossing a river on the Shinkasen - with the naked eye, we could not see the bridge's support beams when we looked out, we were going so fast - only the camera could make out the beams
AllieMark:
A clever contraption at our private house in Kyoto - flush the toilet and water runs first through a sink then into the tank
AllieMark:
Mark getting rained on - we liked the rings that hang from roof drainage systems, creating mini waterfalls as the water drains from the spouts
