First impressions of Japan

> I'm riding the bullet train right now from Tokyo to Kyoto after
> nearly 2 calendar days worth of travel. I landed clueless and paid
> for it (literally) by screwing up the exchange rate & taking out
> $2000 in yen instead of $200, so I'm traveling with a big wad of
> bills right now, accidentally and unfortunately... From the ATM
> mishap I recovered though with the help of some very friendly people
> working for the train who set me up with transport. People are
> incredibly friendly and helpful across the board it seems. I'm dying
> to get to bed since I didn't really sleep on the flight, in favor of
> a movie marathon starting with the documentary history of Stax
> records and ending with National Treasure: book of secrets - a movie
> that so blatantly avoids dealing with reality you stop noticing
> after a while.
>
> I feel like I'm in a daydream right now, and it smells like a bait
> shop since the guy next to me has been snacking on a bag of sardines
> or some type of fish that I've only seen before on a hook as bait.
> Delirious at this point, can't wait to really begin exploring
> tomorrow.
