Trust me and e-jump. We both applied this yr and the bank confirm this. Otherwise will waste ur time to get the letter and resubmit.

My visa approved as per what my agent emailed me.

err i went public bank and ask them to print statement and certify bank slip for me.. no need to pay wo

Statement & letter from the bank is different. The letter has to be on a letterhead.

Statement anytime print also will be free.

I'm going to Tokyo Japan coming November for a 5 days and nights package. How much cash do I need to bring just for Transport and Food (lunch and dinner only). How much for an average meal in japan actually? Please advice.

yeah i saw your planned schedule going to places, but just very simple one only right?

I'm planning to goto Ghibli museum, mafan abit need to get a friend to buy the tickets 3 months in advanced... and planning to goto disneyland

ok will pm u da kyoto itinerary later, quite long, maybe a bit messy, but quite detailed.

Ghibli museum closed for maintenance during my visit so no chance to go
disneysea/land, too crowded and i got not enough time to go for this trip

ya just my first draft, so it's quite simple, not sure how to make it detail yet

My trip also feels "packed" as we also plan to go to Hekinan to visit some old friends... :S And going there needs about 2hours on Shinkansen...

Anything in particular in Tokyo i should keep an eye out? Wat is must-buy, must-eat and so on?

My hubby also likes anime n gundam stuff so I think probably have to goto Odaiba...~ and Akiba is a must liaw...

this depends
my travel mates gila hobby and models, so akiba, odaiba is must for them n me
i wan see ginko tree ( but the time i go the timing is not perfect yet) so i choose Meijijingu Gaien
added 2 temple which is asakusa and meiji shrine , but temple thing i believe u had see more in kyoto
n i plan to see the busy zebra crossing so i put shibuya

if u got time u can add in hakone and niko but i dun have enough time for that dy

I went to mori tower in roppongi hill in tokyo. I really recommend it. There's a sky deck in mori tower where you have a view of the entire tokyo city at the helipad of mori tower. I went there at night and it was spectacular.

Buy the 2000 yen ticket instead of the 1500yen ticket. The 1500yen ticket only takes you to the observatory deck, which is not that nice. the 2000 yen ticket will take you to the roof of mori tower. What's more, they also set up some Mickey Mouse statue there and for every 10 - 15 minutes, those statue will light up and music will be broadcast like a disco night. It was very creative and i really did not expect that.

Roppongi Hill Sky Deck
