No need go so far. Okinawa are for medium wealth Japanese to enjoy Summer vacation. Most Japanese those work in Tokyo , Yokohama , Kawasaki will gather at Enoshima.

Just 1 hour away from Tokyo. Please refer to page1.
I already share this bikini info long time ago.

your personal review?

I prefer Disneyland as it is more 'magical'. Disneysea mostly rides which I don't really enjoy, queue is too long too.

Luckily I still have 80k yen from my previous trip. Accommodation already paid in advance so not going to be hit much. But hopefully the rate becomes better by the end of this year.

Cash better than credit card in Japan. In Europe they prefer CC.

In Eruope even you buy a 1 euro stuff at Convenient Store also can used CC
*
Places like shinkansen ticket office, disneyland and 3 star above hotels do accept CC. The exchange rate imposed by our local money changer is higher than the imposed by CC. At the same time, some CC will give rebate and/or reward points.

My upcoming will not be cheap  sad.gif  Just the air tickets cost me RM4.5K as I will be taking SIA this time and right on 2016 New year Eve. The same hotel that I booked at Nihonbashi is selling at RM350/night instead of RM150 during my 1st trip  cry.gif  Furthermore.. I will be buying JR Rail pass traveling to Hiroshima /Osaka & Kyoto b2fore back to Tokyo.. Atleast RM12K  for 3 based on my rough estimate rclxub.gif

Any sifu advice below:-
1) Do I need to buy JR/Osaka Amazing/Kyoto Day/Tokyo Day Pass for example?
2) Roughly how much to allocate on transportation on my journey?
Hope can get some answers to help on my planning. Thanks.

For this 2 question, you can try to see the ticket fare using hyperdia.com and compare which is more worthwhile. Usually a mix of passes will be useful.

I think a few of us here agree that for tokyo, pasmo/suica is a better deal
