QUOTE(ravira3 @ Sep 22 2012, 07:59 AM) With regards to japan visa afaik their visa is 3 months long and the count starts from the day of approval so I will be applying 1 month before which is in november. anyway, what say we have our next meetup in october to further discuss the itinerary? Anyone have a date in mind? Any sunday in October should be fine for me.

QUOTE(ravira3 @ Sep 24 2012, 03:44 PM) this coming sunday or next week's sunday should be alright. for visa i thought it considered the date when we r going  need someone to clarify this. also: maybe if apply more than 3 months before they hv no choice but to give 1 year visa haha next sunday is fine with me. i thought the multi entry visa was for business people lol.

QUOTE(riku2replica @ Oct 1 2012, 09:39 AM) I prefer some wifi area with proper table and charging place. Still, KL or Bukit Bintang? I leave the decision to y'all I'm not very familiar with those places. XD

Results of today's discussion 1. we will rent a phone and I will activate data roaming on my phone. 2. We will likely be taking the seishun 18 ticket because can split over multiple days. 3. travel plan has been further refined. 4. we will likely have our visas made in november.

QUOTE(riku2replica @ Dec 3 2012, 09:07 AM) Will reply once i confirmed if i have a flight on 15th. Btw, how was N3 JLPT? Hopefully. Any last amendments or issue we have to sort out? maybe necessary distribution list of stuffs to bring so that each of us can fully utilize our luggage spaces/capacity. N3 was pretty ok lol think i can pass. As for last minute amendments i think I am shifting some itineraries here and there to maximize coverage, Also added a couple more spots to visit. Will discuss in more detail at the meetup. I am also drafting out a hitlist for comiket stuff so if you guys have any circles you want to hit please let me know so we can plan our group action. p.s. My visa got approved and ive changed quite a bit of yen so far. This post has been edited by Setsuna-san: Dec 3 2012, 11:37 AM

QUOTE(ravira3 @ Dec 6 2012, 01:30 PM) hoping to find nice fukubukuro. EG mentioned it before too hehe how much check-in baggage weight did u guys get? i took the 35kg going and 40kg return. might not hv been such a good idea if we're gonna lug around baggage up and down station stairs  35 is too much for going IMO but for returns eh 40 is ok depending on how much stuff you are buying.

QUOTE(ravira3 @ Dec 17 2012, 01:55 PM) wait are you on the same flight on 22nd? i always thought u were going on a later date. links for some possible overnight hotels: they're all rooms for 2ppl on double sized bed. but some what ive read, the double bed in japanese hotels are somewhat narrower. price range around RM255, /2ppl http://www.agoda.com/asia/japan/tokyo/sote...VRzO%2fTKNMITQshttp://www.agoda.com/asia/japan/tokyo/toky...c8DWCor%2fkQ8X7http://www.booking.com/hotel/jp/horidome-v...w_room=24451902http://www.booking.com/hotel/jp/oak-tokyo....w_room=32003004 http://www.my.pyotravel.com/hotel/villa-fo...okyo-sgw1s2219h im looking at this place as it has a shuttle bus service to it and i might be able to arrange for the hotel booking and shuttle bus together via a travel agent. will update again when i get confirmation.
