+=== April 20th - Shinkansen tour ===
+
+In a jounery report, the details of transportation are usually left out as uninteresting.
+Except if one takes the fastest train in the world!  We took the
+[[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T%C5%8Dkaid%C5%8D_Shinkansen|Tokaido Shinkansen]] line from Odawara to Kyoto,
+riding on a [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/700_Series_Shinkansen|700-series]] train for the
+[[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hikari_%28Shinkansen%29|Hikari service]].
+

+[[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galaxy_Express_999|machine body]] with it! ;-)
