booked. researched. and done. i know it's a little early.. but well... *shrug*
day 1 to day 8 in tokyo
with days dedicated to akihabara, shinjuku,odaiba, shibuya, asakusa,ginza & tsukiji part of town, tokyo disneysea(this which incidentally i need to find a partner or a group to go with. it'll be a little odd for a man like me to go there alone :P and i've got 2 and half months to find)
these 8 days will be used with the suica card. ( same like the oyster card i hope)
day 9 will be in hakone. (basically i chose hakone for the one day because it was on the way down to kyoto)
and one day because
i. i booked tokyo and kyoto's hotel before i booked this one in the middle lol
ii. one day should have been sufficient but i wanted to try a ryokan experience somewhere near the hotsprings.
iii. utilizing the 7 days JR rail pass which i have yet to buy.
day 10-day 13 will be done partly in kyoto with 2 or 2 1/2 days in kyoto around those temples. and palaces and whatnots
i'm not a temple kind of guy but just to say i've been there seen it, done that ?
will base myself in kyoto while i go visit the surroundings.
arashimaya bamboo grove.( it will have those things like the ninja movies where the shurikens get stuck to the bamboos lol *not)
some golden and silver pavilion.
then a half day visit to nara or full day depending on how bored i am.
after that ..i'll use one full day from kyoto to osaka to see the whale shark in the aquarium and spend one whole day there in osaka.
i am gonna skip Universal studios japan cos er.. i am gonna visit disneysea. also i think it's been already hard enough to find ppl to go to disneysea. bah humbugs.
day 14 will be last day in kyoto and see me make my way tokyo via the shinkansen again.
arriving in shinagawa prince hotel check in at 1 and then i'm gonna do a round trip of the JR yamamote line ( same like the circle line in london). and then visit ikebukuro (must go see ikebukuro westgatepark - jpn drama series). then finally
wake up on day 15 at 7 or 8 to begin my journey to narita home.
*bleh*
and how much did the flight and hotels cost me ?
at the moment it's at
£595.50 (flight)+
£175.10 (8 nights oak hotel tokyo [no meals]) +
£61 (13800 yen - 1 night hakone [hienkaku]) +
£85 ( 18900yen 4 nights palace side hotel kyoto [no meals])
£47 (10600yen 1 night in shinagawa prince hotel) (chose this because it was 200 metres away from the station to take the train to Narita)
so the current damage is at the total of £963.60.
okies.. this most probably will be the last post on the plan to japan until the day i fly off.
i will have to write more memorable stuffs about london while i'm still here. lol
or rather while i'm still alive.
i have to create an itinerary like japan so that i can say i've been there done that lol
