Kelly’s traveling experience onboard the Bullet train from Osaka to Kyoto in Japan during winter 2007:
Much excitement was aroused prior on board since I was hoping on the legendary bullet train (which is also know as Shinkansen) –which is one of the fastest trains in the world. My tour guide informed us that the journey on bullet train from Osaka to Kyoto takes only a mere 15 minutes, as compared to an hour road trip.
At the beginning, a slight disappointment set in when I realized that I was not taking a roller coaster ride after all; you wouldn’t feel a rush of adrenaline just by taking this train. The speed of picking up is rather normal, like our usual MRT in Singapore, after which the sceneries changes more rapidly. When the bullet train rides at its full speed, it will finally be too dazzling to glance outside the window. It’s a perfect moment to divert your attention for a small chat with the person sitting beside you.
japanese are lucky people. they got all new technology including transportation.
p/s: i found your link on BC but i think the thread was a spam, so i go directly here. come onto my blog and kindly drop a comment as u wish.
thanks.
Yah, people say the current gadgets that we are using are already outdated in Japan *~*
seriously Japanese are lucky people only…….in India there are no bullet trains…i don’t know when it would come in India…..after so many disaster still japan as made everyone turn and see them.hats off to every Japanese.
Japanese are very creative and they possess the “win-or-die” attitude. Singapore also no bullet train, can’t, by the time the train is at its fullest speed, it has already passed by many stations LOL!! Small island.. The longest width from one end to the other end (East to West) only takes 45mins of driving time.
Wow…one thing is for sure that Asia and specifically Japan has all the fantastic technologies – mobile, trains, devices, gadgets and paper arts.
Nice photographs, keep it up.
I would love to ride on one of these. Must be very exciting.
hats off to JAPAN TECHNOLOGY and people’s mind…….
great man its speed….im eager to travell in this….
