Life in the Fast Train

At the end of October we traveled south to a friend's wedding in Hagi City which is in Yamaguchi Prefecture on the Island of Honshu (the main Island of Japan).

We spent some time in Hiroshima visiting family and then took the shinkansen (bullet train) to Yamaguchi City.

This is a photo I took of us in the shinkansen window as we sped through a dark tunnel. These trains travel at speeds of up to 300 kilometers and hour.



It is exciting to see other parts of Japan.

But I am always happy to come home to our much slower life on the horse farm.

Tammy in the fast lane. This doesn't match, but it does. Bullet train, sled dog racing, classroom running. Somehow it is all the same.
