Japan 2015: Bullet trains, airports, subways, buses

Long overdue posts on my first Japan trip last September 2015.  I've started a couple but have yet to post several more. Anyway, better late than never =)  This post is all scenes at the airport, trains, subways and buses.

Our Singapore Airline plane at Kansai Airport.

Clockwise from top left: Kyoto station ticket booth, waiting area, train schedules.
Subway scenes
Everyone's patiently queuing up.
Shinkansen! Bullet trains!
Kyoto-Tokyo bullet train scenes
Tokyo-Kyoto bullet train scenes :)
Subway ticketing machine which looks complicated but fairly easy.  There's an English button at the top right to assist non-Japanese folks like us.
Another stop at Kyoto station.


While waiting for our train =)
At Shinjuku station - the world's busiest transport hub!  Pictures were taken at a slow time of the day =)
L-R: Security at the train platforms; discipline in lining up for everything!

L-R: Nozomi and Hikari bullet trains.  Nozomi trains are the fastest and with the most expensive tickets.  Hikari trains are the second fastest with a less pricey ticket.
