Day 4 Leaving Kyoto; going to Tokyo

Today is the day we are leaving Kyoto and making are way to Tokyo by way of the bullet train. The trains are awesome. They are super speed. They go about 150mph. They have comfortable seats, bathrooms, and even girls selling food and beverages. They are all clean even though everyone eats on them. You will notice everyone actually gets up and throws their items away. How rare is that? People respecting their environment. You will see a number of pictures in the train station and from the train window. Randomly you will see Ant & I throwing the peace sign in pics as this is a huge thing in Japan for the youth to do when they take pics. So as they say when in Rome. Once we arrived in Tokyo Station about three hours later we met a girl from Austrilia travelling to the same place we were. So we followed her. we ended up hanging out with her the rest of the day. It was raining so Ant and I grabbed umbrellas and the three of us went out exploring. We ended up at the Tokyo Dome which is where they play baseball. They had shopping and a huge amusent park there. We couldn't believe how big Christmas is here. We had no idea. There is decor everywhere. Check out some of the cool stuff we saw. Ok we are off to bed now. Till later. Lisa & Anthony.
