piggy,
Hahaha .. i can't really answer your question cos all settled by my hubby
. I know that he changed S$1.5k for the 2 of us, and i secretly changed $300 (hahah .. my 私房钱 in case i want to buy something nice for myself). When we came back he still have 14000yen left leh.
We din really buy much stuff as u can from the pics i posted in my fb
and for our meals there, we normally look for those which is below 1000yen de. So that prob explains why he still have leftover.

mashy,
your daily meals budget is for the whole family or per pax?
piggy,
we also bringing abt $1.5K for 7 days. but yday or the day before, my hb said wan to change a few hundreds more.
donkeymami,
how many days will u be in japan? there're indeed some very ex eating places but there're some economical ones as well. we liked the small local food places more than those high end ones. we also had tempura at some ex places. cost almost SIN$300 for 3 adults. i wanted to faint then.

i remembered we spent abt $500 in disneyland the last time. we were shocked at the end of the day. other than tat crazy spree, we dun really shop for clothes in Japan. more of buying toiletries & some make-up. haha! we spent a lot of time going into different drugstores even though they sell more or less the same things. i dun really like japanese titbits. find tat they look nice but dun taste nice. but their food is really YUMMY!!! i love their ramen & this particular black pig cutlet in hakone!!! so far still can't any in s'pore tat can match these 2 i've eaten.

Piggy/Zen:
Usually they will request u to drink from the bottle if its in waterbottle for kids... thee last time i brought the hot water, they also let u in when they see the baby... so should be fine... but i prefer to take a empty thermal flask and get hot water on board...

it's per adult. I'm not counting the kids since they will share our food.
If u have kids, anything can for the plane. Just say it's for bb. Altho I think some stricter officers will make u pour the water away and refill on the plane.
Sounds like I'm bringing a lot of money leh. $1.5k can meh? Includes hotel? I have tabled the essential cost like entrance fees, transport, hotel.

true also. Your transport cost already not as much. Oh, my hotel is not prepaid. We only pay when we check in. So abt 900 to hotel. So abt 1.9k for 4 of us 9 days.

Zen/piggy, can bring hot water & drinking water onboard in fact when i fly to HK from changi the security didn't chk at all jz let me to go in wif my bb bag..when i fly back from HK custom detect some liquid in my bag & chk my bag cos i bring some medicine onboard too hahaha...
piggy: can bring thermal flask up, water and formula powder up but only the amount that is required for the flight. So like ur entire container of powder, either u check in or they might throw away at check in.. not allowed.
Some officers might be really strict and ask u to take hot water from airline.

ya. In japan, no need to pre pay for hotel bookings unless I suppose if u book from international online website. Most dun even need the credit card no in case of cancellation.
