Japanese Train rides

I have such good memories of the trip we took. Today I was describing riding on the trains in Japan and showing my son some pictures in a book on Japan. The trains are fast, they are efficient and they are pretty. We need something like that here.

Almost every ride was good but one was unique. I sat down on a fairly crowded train next to a guy who had gas. Our ride lasted between 45 minutes and an hour that day. Then a guy stood in front of me and held the little ring overhead to keep his balance. He forgot to use deodorant and had body odor. Between the two of them, the air on that trip did not smell very good.

My son and I were in a coffee shop and the ladies at the next table heard what I was telling him and started laughing out loud. They apologized but it was okay with me. That was just one of those unique experiences we have sometimes. I still like the concept of the trains.
