Very punctual drive. The driver had the list of passengers' information and named them. The driver helped us put the large luggage under the bus to the trunk. The terminus is 1030 from the bus stop near Akihabara Station. Then around 11 o'clock to Kyoto Toyasu and pick up the remaining passengers. About 1230 to rest stop stop, have 15 minutes to rest walk around buy food and go to the bathroom. Arrive at the station at about 1 o'clock. Very smooth.
