Initial arrival

When you first arrive in Japan there is a feeling
reminiscent of a scene from Black Rain when Michael
Douglas looks out of the window and at the industrial
landscape of Japan. After you land and collect your
belongings from the baggage terminal you must make
your way to a procession at the passport screening
booths where you will be interrogated by Japanese
customs officials. There is no emotion in their eyes as
they proceed to ask you a series of questions including
silly ones like, "Where do you plan to go sightseeing?"
or "Will you be working here ilegally?" Unless you're
an idiot and answered YES to the second question you won't make it past this point.



After you are approved to officially enter the
non-restricted part of the airport you are free
to exchange currency, purchase souvenirs and
snacks from the vending machine, and enjoy a
smoke outside. Depending on where you're
headed there are buses, taxis, and trains
ready to carry you to your next destination.
Trains run from Narita International Aiport, in Chiba, Japan to Tokyo.
There are several types of trains, but the faster and more convenient
train is known as the Narita Express. Its aisles, seats, and windows are
extremelywide and enhance comfort levels. Be ready to dish out $20-40
for a standard cabin depending on destination. The "green" cabins are
considered first-class and are even more spacious and godly. Prices
will probably be around $50-60 USD.
