Im looking for a nozomi fare from hiroshima to fukuoka one way, on august 11, reserve.How much probably will it cost me.Im contemplating on extending our stay for another day to accomodate hiroshima and also just to try to ride a nozomi train, since our 7 day JR pass no longer valid during that day.The various website offers diffrent fares.

Hi,
I will arrive in Tokyo in 2 weeks for a month and I would like to rent a motorbike there (between 250 and 750 cm3). Looks like all the website are only in japanese...

Thanks in advance!
