List of my travel diary My train photoes The other contents

I made a day trip to Takamatsu

It is because of my job-hunting. To save money, I took a highway bus for Takamatsu from OCAT*1, instead of taking trains.
The highway bus brought me to Takamatsu for 3 hours and 20 mins. After getting to Takamatsu, I had Udon for lunch, which is famous souvenir around here. Some people call Kagawa Prefecture Udon Prefecture.

I bought a single trip ticket to go to a station by train, and entered Takamatsu station.

The train I boarded


What was interesting is that the train consisted of two cars, one of which was out of service. The reason must be to reduce the cost.
When I arrived at the station, I found people who look like job hunters.
As I expected, they were job hunters.
I attended a meeting at a company with them.

After the meeting, I returned to Takamatsu station on the same way.
On the way to Takamatsu, I took a picture.

I ate dinner near Takamatsu station.
The dinner was noodle with shark fin, which cost me 500Yen. When we consider that shark fin is expensive, the price must be too cheap.

In the end, I went back home by highway bus and trains. It was so tiring to go all the way to Takamatsu and back home within a day.
