🌿 A DAY TRIP TO SHIGA

I jumped on a JR train from Nagoya Station with no plan and went to see my sister in Shiga 🚃

Full Of Energy

That day, I woke up really early, at about 5 in the morning.

For some reason I had so much energy, so I wanted to go outside Aichi Prefecture.

I wanted to get away from Nagoya, so I came to Nagoya Station.

And I got on a JR train without deciding any plan at all.

My Sister!

As the train went along, I remembered something.

My older sister lives in Shiga Prefecture.

I thought, "If I ride this to the last stop, I can get to the station near my sister's house," and I decided to see her.

I decided to see my sister for the first time in about 3 years.

3 Transfers

When you try to go from Nagoya to Shiga on local trains, surprisingly, there is no train that goes straight there.

It should be one line, but you get off about 3 times.

First, you get off at Ogaki from Nagoya, then from Ogaki you get off at Maibara, like that.

I got off once, waited for the next train, and repeated that.

My sister came to pick me up by car at the nearest station in Shiga.

Something New

For the first time in my life, I jumped on a JR train without deciding any plan.

It was a bit of a fresh experience.
