DISTURBING FACTS

Watch the painting: Then read the text. 

Historically. Until recently, the only way a woman could survive and sustain herself was through marriage. The concept of having a job, owning a property, having legal rights is a very recent concept. Unmarried ladies stayed with their parents and considered themselves a "burden", some were going to live with relatives who could afford to feed and hold them and others were forced to confinement in convents. Marriage for love was a topic of fiction and poetry, but it was not a reality until the industrial revolution, when women could work and keep, so that they could finally be free to choose their husband.

However, middle and upper class women did not have that right to marry for love until the th century.

EXCITING TRAIN JOURNEYS : JAPANESE MAGLEV EXPERIENCE

JAPANESE MAGLEV EXPERIENCE -

THE FASTEST TRAIN IN THE WORLD AT 500KM+ PER HOUR! |

YAMANASHI, JAPAN

My trip to Japan in January of 2019 was one of the coolest adventures I’ve ever been on. I got to spend twelve incredible days exploring the cities of Tokyo, Kyoto, and Osaka, as well as three of the prefectures, or states, around Tokyo. During that time, I got to see amazing attractions, visit beautiful Buddhist temples and Shinto shrines, and eat some of the most phenomenal food I’ve ever had in my life! I’m excited to share my Japanese adventures with you!

My day in the Yamanashi Prefecture began at the Maglev Exhibition Hall, an incredible center that is dedicated to educating people about the Maglev, which is the fastest train in the world and travels at speeds up to 500km per hour, which is double the speed of the Shinkansen bullet train! When the Maglev line between Tokyo and Osaka opens in 2027, a ride between the two cities will only take 67 minutes even though they’re 313 miles apart!

This train is so cool! From the center’s windows, we could watch Maglev trains speed by in the blink of an eye. They are insanely fast!

We also explored a life-sized model of a Maglev train. They’re so futuristic on the inside they look like a spaceship! It’s a very thin train, with a 2-2 seating arrangement in Economy Class, whereas the Shinkansen bullet trains are 3-2 seaters. The word “Maglev” is an abbreviation of “magnetic levitation,” which describes how the train levitates over its track. Because the train essentially floats, it has to be lightweight, which is why there aren’t as many seats inside.

After I tried (and failed) at getting a good stamp as a souvenir, I visited the Maglev Theatre, which shows a video explaining the advancements in train technology, as well as a simulation that recreates how it feels to ride a Maglev train. I couldn’t film inside, but it shakes and moves and is pretty crazy!

There’s also a diorama, or model, of a Maglev station, and a little car that you can ride in that uses magnetic levitation. It’s so cool! You really feel like you’re floating! There’s also an interactive exhibit where you crank a wheel as fast as you can to get the little train inside to float!

Afterward, I visited the gift shop, where I bought a toy Maglev train for my daughter. They also sell wines, chopsticks, pillows, socks, juices, shampoo, and more!

Then it was time for my next stop, which was the Fuji-Q Highland, an amusement in the town of Fujiyoshida, which is known for its extreme roller coasters, some of which have held world records for the fastest in the world and the steepest drop in the world! From the park, you have an amazing view of Mount Fuji!

The amusement park is huge! There are so many rides, including the roller coasters, as well as the most rotated ride in the world and others such as ferris wheels, carousels, and more.

I was a little scared to ride the roller coaster with the steepest drop in the world! I had to take everything off, take everything out of my pockets, and tape my camera to my arm! The ride was so intense and fast! I’m glad I decided to stow away my camera at the last minute! My new friend Haley from Girls Love Travel didn’t think it was scary, but I was a little scared!

The next roller coaster has the fastest acceleration in the world. Haley was ready, but it was so scary! I was a little dizzy afterward! After that was one that has 14 different loops. It rotates as it goes down the track. They even make you take your shoes off before you get on it because your legs hang off the seat as you ride. It was so amazing! It was exhilarating and my favorite ride of all-time!

Our final ride was the ferris wheel, which we rode at twilight to get some epic views of the park and Mount Fuji. From there, we could see people ice skating. The view was absolutely gorgeous!

Then it was time for a snack! I went with the Samurai Mochi, which has a lot of powder on it. I had it on the bus ride back. It’s a rectangular mochi that comes with a black sugar sauce. Trying it on the bus was a bad idea; I got it all over me!

I hope you enjoyed coming with me to the Maglev Exhibition Hall and Fuji-Q Highland Amusement Park! If you did, please give this video a thumbs up, leave me a comment below, and subscribe to my channel so you don’t miss out on any of my upcoming food and travel content!
