Junior Class Trip: Shinkansen

Monday March 12, 1990

We spent most of the today travelling.

From Kobe, we took the Shinkansen (bullet train) to Tokyo. As we were waiting on the platform for our train, another Shinkansen bore down on us with the look and sound of jet plane. As it flashed past us, lot of the girls in jumped in fright. gasped, and then cheered. Being from the country, they've never seen the Shinkansen either. Before we could catch our breath, it was gone. It's thrilling to see the hi-tech side of Japan after living so long in rural Japan.
