Off to Japan :P

Going to Japan for most of the Holy Week Holidays. Really excited about our upcoming trip. My Japan VISA is ready and all systems are green and go!

I've been going over our itinerary and it looks pretty busy with 5 hotel changes spanning our 8 day stay. I would have liked to skip the SANRIO land tour but I'm sure my sisters would go rabid if I petitioned for that.

Hopefully I can do some exploring and sampling of Japan's food and street food. Still undecided on how much JPY I should bring or I should just swipe my purchases.

The weather wasn’t as cooperative as we would’ve liked but I think we made the most of it :D [waiting for our flight to Busuanga] We went to the saltwater hot spring, island hoping, and had a whole lot of fun at Loralee’s luau.
