Offical Train Travelers

Kylee and I are officially Japanese train veterans. We traversed the transportation system from Sagamino to Fussa and back.  No big deal.

We started at Sagamino station, the closest station to the main gate of NAF Atsugi, and traveled up to meet Uncle Ron near Yokota Airbase.  We transferred to 4 different trains along the way.  After a few close calls, and jumping on trains right before they would leave station (in fact, we got on one train, hopped off again to check if it was the right one, then got back on, then left again to get on the train across the tracks!), we only missed one connection.

The trip back down to Sagamino went much smoother, and passed without significant event.
 
Thank the Lord that a friend in the squadron told us about Hyperdia.com - it's a website that tells you how to get from one station to another, including all the stops and transfers along the way, how much the trip will cost, and how long it will take!  There's no way we would have made it without the assistance.

Oh, I also flew my first flight in the Bravo today.  But the train was much more exciting.
