I had to laugh at the background music while Lee was riding the reindeer powered sleigh.I was expecting a Jimmy Shand type Scottish accordion band to appear-- The tune was Rory o More- a well known scots- Irish tune!

Along the Coast of the Seto Inland Sea

 

Located in western Japan, the Seto Inland Sea is home to about 700 islands. This episode, we travel from Okayama Prefecture to Hiroshima Prefecture along the coast. The La Malle de Bois train is perfect for tourists with free Wi-Fi and outlets, while the Setouchi Marine View's huge windows allow for amazing views of the ocean. While taking in the beautiful sights, we stop at Kurashiki, Onomichi, Takehara, Kure, and finally Hiroshima, enjoying all that they have to offer.

I've got them but even converted, that's over 10GB of uploads at 30 minutes per GB. I am afraid I don't have the space on Google Drive or the time to upload that much stuff.

 

If you lived local I could put them onto disc for you but going off your location, that's not the case. Not sure what the best option is really, sorry. :(

 

Edit: Just checked, postage seems to be around £5.05 + vat and around 5 - 7 days to Australia. So if you were missing any of JRJ as well, the option is there for you to cover the postage costs and get them all on 2 discs... they will be Blu-Ray discs though, not DVD, as TC is around 18GB and JRJ is about 21GB. Can't do them as uncompressed files as JRJ is around 75GB in its original format.

Thanks for the episode.

 

Spending a day from Mihara to Hiroshima was always in the plans for a future trip along the Kure Line.  But might add in Okayama to Mihara along the Sanyo Line also for a day.

Thank you both very much gentlemen. If you get stuck utrainia I will take Lee up on his very kind offer.

 

I don't envy you moving house. My mum has just moved into a nursing home and my sister and I are having "great fun" going through nearly 60 years of accumulated "stuff". Good luck and I hope it all goes smoothly.

Hi Lee, all up to date with JRJ. I just didn't hear about the Train Cruse programme until relatively recently. Many thanks for Episode 18.
