The Longest Day


On Friday morning we headed down to Hiroshima to spend the New Year with Miho's family. In an attempt to save money, we decided against taking the Shinkansen in favour of a succession of local trains, using the Seishun 18 Ticket.

The day started in a snowy Kyoto snow and ended, six trains and ten hours later, at Miyajima-guchi. The Seishun 18 also allows you to jump on and off trains at your leisure, so we stopped off and had lunch in Kobe's famous Chinatown.
