Japan! April 14 Part 1 - Nagoya to Takayama

After a sound sleep in our comfortable room, we had the breakfast buffet at the Centrair Hotel. It was an excellent mix of both Japanese and Western cuisine, so of course I had to get my fill of the local eats as well as some potato salad and a croissant. The day was a little overcast but we could still see the ocean from our room. After breakfast and checking out of the hotel, Kanchan was able to quickly navigate us to one train ride, then another. We enjoyed the comfortable reserved seating, and bento lunches and snacks. Kanchan befriended a little dog before one of the train workers politely told the owner to put her back in her crate.  Before we knew it, we were about to arrive in Takayama.
