A new adventure

I found Midori-chan at Tokyo station, which is massive.
The other day I ran through the whole station.
Although it looks kinda okay, it's massive!!
I mean it took me 10 min to walk from the Shinkansen tracks to Keio Line. It seriously felt like I walked to Chiba :P

Anyway... thanks to Midori-chan's map I found the meeting point!
We just bought breakfast and snacks, I finally got my カツサンド/ "katsu-sando".
A sandwich with tonkatsu (pork cutlet). It's one of my fave foods in Japan. (will post photo later)
I donno why but the bread is always so soft!! Also this one was a famous brand, although normal is good too ^^ I also got a japanese green tea and some candies.

We just reached the platform and our train just arrived.
It's our first time to ride the JR East shinkansen and Hayabusa ^^
Excited already :)

My JR pass is here

I ordered it last Friday and got it the following Monday.
Fast service I have to say and so smooth!!
I shared the good news with some of my friends and I'm already excited although I do know I have lots to finish before I will begin my travel.

Anyway I'm so happy and pleased.
Last time I used the JR pass was back in 2008 so it'd be very fun using it again.
Also, with this pass I'll visit some new cities in Japan I haven't been to before.... Kobe, Hakodate and Hokkaido.

So far... HAPPY DAYS
