Michele: Thanks for sharing
I'm tempted to bring Lele just for the experience but rather worried that his attn will wane and thus disturb other viewers...
Blueroti: Thanks so much! Will reply your email
Cat: so far I haven done much except search for cheap and suitable timing flights. Found priceline and zuji not bad. As for attractions, I will be doing mostly Tokyo and prefectures around it. Hubbie doesn't want too much travelling around w a tod so cannot plan too much. Besides, we have both been to Japan before this trip mainly to relax rather than chiong.)
Several findings so far from Japanese friend's recommendations:
1)Tokyo in June is nice cooling weather but can get rainy from late June onwards. Not sure about July?
2)Yokohama has several childfriendly attractions like zoo (many rare animals), children's park, aquarium etc if you are like me dun want to spend too much time travelling...
3)Chiba has nice beaches.
Which part of Japan do u intend to visit?
