SHINKANSEN BULLET TRAIN - TOKYO TO KYOTO

Love traveling on the high speed Shinkansen when in Japan.  The trains are fast, quiet, comfortable and offer a relaxed way to see the countryside and different parts of this incredible country.  We traveled to Hiroshima on our last trip and on this trip we went to the beautiful city of Kyoto in less than two hours.  I enjoyed a nice French Bordeaux and some Cheese and Salumi which was purchased by the attendants that came by once during the trip.
This is a super comfortable way to travel and a bit like flying first class without the flight attendants!
