Yo homie, been a while! Hope you're doing good.

I guess we'll have to just meet in Japan, it seems. Despite the economic woes here, is moving to Japan going to be that much better?

I wouldn't think so... The recession is global. :sweat:

Tokyo, Osaka, and Kyoto, and a random stop in Hakone...

i think i'd rather make a random stop in Sapporo and visit the brewery.

:woot: You will have a great time - if you like temples, you could always go to Koya-san from Osaka and stay overnight in one. When my computer works again - I'll post some pictures.

There's enough room. I'll have to move Musa to my handbag, though.

i already wrapped him up in duct tape and hid him in the closet. :twisted:

i'm going in March too, but i have yet to set my vacation days, and price around for airfare, JAL can be expensive, but i am loyal to that airline, i've used it for every trip. March will be the fifth time.

if you have any questions regarding Japan, please let me know, i'll send you a PM, since i don't frequent this forum as much as i use to.

I remember seeing that station on the way back and forth between Tarumi and Osaka. Tarumi is my home away from home.

We just got back from Japan last week. So it'll be awhile before going back. Probably this Summer.

Will give ya a shout then. Maybe we can catch a Wonderful Hearts concert and drink some Yebisu Black. :bonk:

Eventually we'll have to move to Tarumi. The sooner the better imo.

Or some Kirin Stout.

I am planning on going westward from Narita, maybe as far as Fukuoka, who knows, but near Sakura season, it depends.

That's great AHO, you're moving to Japan, kakkoi desu yo!!

and eye2, nice akb stuff, i got 2 calendars already.

ah, thanks for the info.
i am planning on staying in Shinagawa Prince Hotel again, but at $130 a night or, i am hoping in can split the time duration of my trip and offset some of the costs of accomodation while out and about in Tokyo and beyond.
its bad enough that we are getting bit in the arse with a terrible weak dollar to the yen.

Thanks for the help! I have no idea what airline I'm going with yet, but if JAL's expensive, it may not be that one...
