toyota VIPs

we took a surprisingly interesting tour of one of the toyota factories. it was so official that we actually had our names posted in the foyer, with titles, correct spelling and everything. boy, did we feel like VIPs.
photos inside were forbidden, so i begrudgingly obeyed.
we were able to meet with yayoi, last year's japanese aichi gakusen student in canada, who helped out in our japanese class. she now works as a tour guide at toyota, but sadly only for the japanese tour.



but i did get to sit in one of their crazy one-person vehicles of the future! i was superbly disappointed to discover that a valid japanese driver's license is required to test drive one.
