palace hotel looks nice. just hv to get ppl to agree on price. the train idea might be fun too, if they have bunk beds we can sleep in.

also, i got a short notice im going this monday for foodex at big site. itinerary looks full but if i do hv time i'll try n check out accommodation.

yup, about 2 stations away taking the metropolitan intercity railway, number 2 tsukuba express for akiba.. minami-senju -> asakusa -> shin-okachimachi -> akiba

it's also about 300~400m from minami-senju station, which i think is close.

one place good to visit is the flea market at ooi horse racing parking lot, tokyo city keiba. they have em on sundays. lots of cheap and interesting stuff. saw a bunch of old gbc for 500yen and gba for 1000yen, among other things.

the malay guy showing us around said seafood sushi is fine. sushi place near tsukiji market. but we end up paying a lot. happily eating stuff then suddenly got a huge stack of plates to pay for doh.gif we should try chizu 100yen sushi place.

also there're a lot of discussions about soy sauce alcohol content. but from what i understand the process is not made specifically to obtain alcohol but a byproduct of it, if any. so it is halal, sorta like tapai. there are others who disagree with this tho.

I'll just post this here for ref:


» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


@Setsuna I was thinking of some time this month (this weekend?), but reply from palace hotel somewhat indicates we could book later than May.


@Ultima if cannot use japanese number then no choice. hv to use int roaming =/ or we set waypoints.


*edit: spoiler-ed the long email

@ultima no lah just enquiring. i asked sakura about it but hotel didnt reply. i think u or someone familiar with japan should take the lead (if sakura cant make it)

@setsuna yup roaming expensive. for those disposable phones do we need to sign on any plans?

meetup only if everybody/majority who are interested can come. anybody want to suggest a place? we can use the opportunity to give ideas on places to go/activities to do. i kinda wanna go snowboarding since it's winter haha
