They can't even confirm if the Airport Limo requires an exchange of coupons/tickets before boarding the Limo... They confirmed that the Website says the counter will close at 6pm (i thought it was 7pm)... yet they say its okay... no change of tickets to coupons necessary to board the limo...

We booked our Airport Limo bus from the hotel. They did check our tickets before we board the bus.

okie… we’ll be trying to book the Airport Limo from Oriental Hotel Tokyo Bay…

Just found the Highway Bus schedule that goes to Mt Fuji from Shinjuku station.


So they DO have trips to Mt FUJI even during the off-peak season.

But I think it depends on the weather whether you can go up to the 5th station of Mt Fuji though (any higher u have to trek). While we were there last week (seemed ages now ;-<), we saw snow along the road up already. Checkout the wild deers along the drive way as well as the small temple and souvenir shop at the 5th station but was told that the souvenir shop may decide to close as early as 4 pm if they do not see any tourist bus/crowd. & it’s cold & windy - do bring along winter wear clothings.

Hi parents,


For those who have already been to Tokyo Disney, may I know what are the ‘Must go’ attractions or rides? We are going next week with kids and parents. If there is a ‘Must go’ or ‘Must try’ list of rides, we can plan so that we don’t miss them.

Btw, we are with tour package which has 1 day @ disney.

Thanks!

I haven’t been to Japan yet, but I will be traveling there around April with my baby and hubby. That is the only time that we can travel as a family…

Your blog is so interesting, and photos very well-taken. I like the scenic pics! Can share which camera you are using? Been looking for one...

Are you going to Disneyland or Disneysea? How old are your kids?
