We left our ships cabin in Tokyo for the bullet train to Kyoto. We have rebooked our little hotel, but we have upgraded from the 120cm wide semi double to a 140cm double bed. Every cm counts here!
The hikari (2nd fastest bullet train) is like flying in a jet at low altitude. Super quiet, super smooth and just the sound of the air you are cutting through. Front like an F1 car. Camber on the corners to handle the speed, and the scenery is blur for anything closer than 50 metres. A lot of leg room which was unexpected.
Runing early, we changed our tickets to an earlier train, and then struggled to find the platform in time. We found an info desk with the best english so far- hard to find in Tokyo, but seems to be where it counts.
Holding up Tokyo's response to the Tour d'Eiffel/ Leg room great for business travel/ bullet can
