Traveling In Style

There are the cheap ways of traveling across the country, and then there's the Shinkansen(bullet train). But when you're carrying a Japan Rail Pass, the regular rules of travel don't apply. For a mere 250 dollars you can enjoy seven days ofunlimited speeding trains. Flash the card at the station guy and step on.

Technically, I'm not suppossed to have this pass since I hold a long term visa. But the ticket woman didn't look, and I didn't tell. And now my friends and I can prance across the country as the good tourists we pretend to be.
