Day 26 of Overseas Trip 2016

I departed Kawaguchiko in the early morning. I took the train of Fujikyu Railway to Otsuki station. That is where I have to transfer to JR train.
Taking JR express train will bring me to Tokyo station.
At Tokyo station, I saw a Western lady carrying her baby while looking after these many bags. Oh my god. That was massive task to do while her husband was doing something else before he returned back to her.
At the same time, I saw Japanese businessman greeting to another Japanese businessman - a standard bow greeting.
I took shinkansen from Tokyo Station to Toyama station. At Toyama, I leave my bag behind so that I can check whether I can book coach seat for Shirakawa-go.

To do this, I have to take train. In the first place, I had no knowledge that this train trip to Takayama station was that slow because of only one train track for most of the trip!
Finally, it is almost 2 hours to reach Takayama station.
I manage to communicate the counter lady at Takayama Nohi Bus Centre to book a seat.
All is set! I can prepare myself to travel Shirakawa-go on Day 27.
