guys, for those recently went to Tokyo for trip or those resides at Tokyo, I would like to verify on radiation level in Japan as my colleague frens, both couples whom went at different times did expose to radiation and advised to  abort the baby and avoid pregnancy in 10 years...quite sadden news for the couple and I wonder is Japan safe for tourists? weather is one thing, food which contaminated from radiation is also a concern for us...

me and my partner plan to have trip to Tokyo on coming spring 2013. need your advise sincerely. thanks!

150 is expensive man, but maybe coz the distance is further. yes, you can ask you friend to submit on your behalf 

Since there is no specific target, it will be just walking and stop when there is something that pique our interest. For example, Shinjuku and Shibuya are 2 very large location. Is there any specific area like Bukit Bintang golden triangle or shopping malls area?

Another question is, people use to say that Shinjuku/Shibuya/Harajuku are all within walking distance..so is it common to walk from Shinjuku to Harajuku or take the rail? I can cover the 2.8 km distance by walking, but just wanna know what a common tourist will do 

Also what is the meaning of the symbol inside the red box? using same line but haave to disembark and take the next train?

Osaka is city for shopping. Kyoto is more traditional for temples and sightseeing. Depends on ur own preference

Hi guys, I am going to tokyo for 6 days (9 nov to 14 nov), since AA flight is abit screwed up, me and my gf will be arriving about 11pm at Haneda Airport.
