Jeremy > Some things are universal: Kids love trains.
Jeremy > We first encountered this nice group of people at the ticket kiosk and noticed that they were speaking perfect English to each other. So we surreptitiously shadowed them and were happy to find that they were going to the same place we were: The Hamakita Kite Festival. We crossed paths with them along their tour of Japan; they are mostly from Australia.
Jeremy > Many local lines have only one track.  Thus opposing trains can only cross each other at stations. We observed that trains were not unduly delayed by this method, because trains in Japan always depart on time.
Jeremy > By now Oliver and I have befriended the Australian travelers and are dining at Mos Burger with them before catching our shuttle bus to the festival.
Jeremy > Despite the way he's holding it Oliver really does like burgers.
Jeremy > On the bus enroute to the festival.

Jeremy > We were pretty sure that the shuttle bus was full when we first boarded, yet the bus made a few more stops to pick up even more festival-goers.  That is my forehead in the foreground; this is composition by luck (no cropping needed!)
