During the past week or so, I have been doing a big "project" - yes, planning a holiday to Japan, the Land of The Rising Sun, in December.
Instead of following the traditional guided tours offered by the various travel agencies, I decided to DIY again, afterall this will be my third trip to Japan.
Many things are running concurrently -
gathering more info on places to visit during my one week's stay,
sourcing the cheapest available flights on the selected dates,
checking the various accommodations around the places of interest I intend to visit,
going to the library to borrow travel books on Japan,
collect some free itineraries from the travel agencies,
... etc.
So far, the experience is VERY tedious but fun.
My main concerns include the cold wintry conditions and the high cost of living in Japan.
Again, it will be a trip with lots of train journeys, sight-seeing and not forgetting meeting Ito's and Uchibori's families. It has been more than 8 years since our last meeting.
I can't wait for December to arrive.
