Description
Those of you who follow me on twitter or tumblr probably saw pictures of this on Wednesday, but there was a sudden storm that day and it rained SO hard that there were flash floods in Nagoya. This knocked the trains out for a while, but most importantly, it knocked out the Meitetsu, the line I take home. So, I decided to document this escapade, 'cause heck, might as well get SOMETHING out of it.And yes, I do cry REALLY easily. I'm a terrible person to go see movies with ^_^;; I was stressed that I might not get home, which started the tears, and then she was nice to me, which made me cry harder. Ahah, she was so worried ^_^;; Poor lady. *spoiler* I got home, but as I got on the train, I ran into her again, and she was happy to see I was okay and heading home.
I got to leave early from work b/c my students canceled so I could et home. Sadly, the trains were already closed by then ^_^;; I might as well have stayed to teach them, it woulda beat wandering around.
Part 2 up next week!
Enjoy!

good grief that happened to me yesterday and i was exactly the same. The Trains were delayed for track work and kept being delayed, you can bet as soon as the sun started setting the water works started.
Its a bit of a relief im not the only one that cries easily. Glad you got home alright :3

Hehe, yeah, seems like there are a lot of us who cry easily, at least we have company ^_^
I hope you got home okay too!

Absolutely the worst!
We can take comfort in that there are many more who cry at the drop of a hat.
I got home safe and sound, thank goodness for them starting up buses.

Haha, you're so cute. I'm sure that was super stressful though =C Whenever I travel if I have to make a train or bus by a certain time I always feel stressed until I'm actually on said train or bus (even if I have plenty of time to make it).

I never got how they can have so much in Japan, considering they don't have very much land to work with.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
So much what exactly?
Building-wise, it's easy, they just build up. There are a lot of high-rises. Also, tons of apartment complexes.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well, buildings I guess can be built that way. But what about all the railroads and farmland? Or are there not as much as I think there are?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
There's a lot of train stuff, but they also have to have roads and things. Japan is small but it's not THAT small. The farm land is mostly in the country.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
And I'm guessing about half that farm land is rice paddies?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
well, my area is rice patties and green tea. Most of the actual farms are farther up north, where the land is more sparsely populated.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Do they grow anything besides rice and tea?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Of course! There are huge agricultural farms up in Hokkaido, there are all sorts of good farmed here. Stawberries are a booming business, not to mention all the veggies that are native to Japan.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Veggies? I'm guessing you don't mean carrots or peas...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
No, they grow carrots here. They're much bigger. I assume they grow peas. they grow a lot of things. Just like, no raspberries.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Where do they grow raspberries anyway?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
well, I've never seen one for sale, so not in Japan. I use to have them in my backyard when I was young in the states.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Now I'm gonna be thinking about where raspberries grow all week...
