There's pretty much two types of food you'll find in Japan... the fancy stuff (which IMHO isn't very nice) and stuff that is pretty much the same as any Japanese restaurant in Calgary. The food we have here is pretty authentic.

The JR pass is awesome because it's an efficient way to see a lot of the country in a short period of time, and because it pretty much pays for itself with one round trip on a bullet train per week.
