Trains!
Trains. We don't have a lot of passenger trains in the USA. The ones we do aren't very convenient. The first time I road a train was in Italy, the second was in Tokyo. It wasn't until after that that I road a train in the USA. I didn't understand them well at first and I was totally afraid of exploring by train. I'm used to navigating by compass direction and landmarks, so getting on a train and popping out who knows where was quite a difficult transition. But I've finally (after 5 years) made that transition, and now I've started enjoying exploring cities in Japan by train. I recently covered most of Osaka and Kobe and am looking forward to taking another shot at Tokyo!
レールでの探険。アメリカは旅客列車はあまり多くない。あるのはあまり便利ではない。初めて電車や列車に乗った時はイタリアへ旅行しに行った時、その次は東京で。その外国での経験の二つの後で、初めてアメリカで乗った。最初はよく分からなくて知らん場所に行くのが怖かった。方角と山みたいな目印でどちらへ行ったらいいか分かるけど、電車や得に地下鉄に乗ってその方角が完全に分からなくなってどこに出たかよく分からない。でも、5年間の練習でやっとなれてきたから、最近大阪と神戸を列車で楽しんで探険できて、8月にもう一回東京でトライしてみようと思っている。
