Re: Journey through Japan " The Tomei Tank"
A great set Rich. It was good to meet you, Dave and Alan (aka Barry!). Glad to see the rest of your trip paid off. It looks as though I should head further South next time to find some different colour schemes!

Superb set mate, some of the best I've seen from Japan, did you manage to shoot any Shin Meiwa's?

Re: Journey through Japan " The Tomei Tank"
Thanks all.
Stu.
We saw one taxi out on the Day we were there at Iwakuni.
Terrible conditions and on the wrong end, he went back in after taxi.
We simply ran out of weather the 2nd and 3rd Week after a great 4 Days the 1st Week.

Hi Rich, thanks for the great info & pics.
Isn't ETC cards only for Japanese citizens, linked to their creditcard. Why is the info in your post?
Rgds, Carl.

Hi Carl,
Nippon car rental can provide non Japanese nationals the etc card, I think it's the only car hire place that does.
The car pick up just outside Narita airport was right next door to our 1st hotel, perfect!
Be sure to slow for 20km through the toll barriers, although it seemed the japs only wanted to go 50km a hour on the motorway but 100km through the barriers lol
Cheers Rich
