Regarding Hiroshima, PASPY and ICOCA are the only options for getting around town and on the airport bus, correct? I already have a PASMO card, but will need to buy an IC card upon arrival in Kyoto for my girlfriend, so wondering if I shouldn't pick an ICOCA up for myself as well to avoid the hassle of buying tickets for a short day trip.
