god i definitely need this it's been my 3rd day in Japan,can't even communicate with the people there. today a guy came to collect the futon rental,I couldn't even say thank you,brainfart

google translate apps support offline,
u just need to download the language pack

haha,i have the app,just that on the spot when ppl are speaking to me,can't really translate on the spot and i totally have no idea what they are saying until they do some sign then I only can get what they actually want me to do  

Google translation sxxk big time. it always jokes on translation.
it will make you become laughing stock. plus
Google translation got one big weakness was people talking to you with Japanese , you still cannot understand it.

3 month internship in Nomi pretty fascinated by everything,the punctuality,efficiency,friendliness even the toilet bowl in my single room is fascinating (not the auto spray buttock one )

I won't say to cover 100%, just that if Osaka what the most worth place to visit that all. Yea I know if want cover onc city definitely need to take longer. Just that this trip will be good if can covered the iconic places that all(again not all). There will be a second visit to Japan for sure. Even the forumer here sure have visited more than once.

Everything was delicious. but price was slight expensive.
After meal continue shopping at Nakano Broadway.

Go to Jackroad in nakano broadway. Nice place to get your watches that is cheaper in the market. And you get tax free!

Nakano broadway are something like Akihabara but more local price.  I go there cari all 2nd hand comic , 2nd hand PS4 games , 2nd hand ahemm video. Go watch those pretty young girl who likes cosplay.

Imagine ahemm video just for 500yen

Oedo Onsen was expensive and sleep on tatami floor only. I rather sleep at Airport Hotel much better.
Best choice was sleep at Airport Hotel or take limo bus to Shinjuku. At Shinjuku walk to those Internet & Manga Cafe.  You can rent a small room inside CC. Extremely cheap and free bottomless drinks too.

Those Internet speed are 30mb per sec. Used it for do homework.

Last train all stop at 11.30pm - 12am.
You won't able to catch it.

Family also can stay a those Manga Internet Cafe just for few hour.
They have alot big comfortable  sofa for rest.
Drink some coffee or soft drink (Free) , buy some instant noodle if hungry.

If you already booked Airbnb then take Taxi from Shinjuku Station to your airbnb location. Since already at Shinjuku, wot be that expensive compare from Airport.  Shinjuku to Shin Okubo just 1.4km // 1,100 Yen , Walking also can be done. Tokyo street are very safe for walking at night.

Shinjuku to Higashi Shinjuku also around 1.4km // 1,100 Yen

Hi Sifu,

will be doing a self-drive at Hokkaido early Nov. got cheap tickets previously ^^

1) found the most value portable wifi rental @ RM33/day (with damage insurance), telco is Softbank 4G LTE and claimed to have better coverage there compared with Ymobile
2) found a 6d5n ground package with these itinerary (excluded the suggested stops and places to visit):

chitose -> noboribetsu (hotel sekisuitei)

noboribetsu -> hakodate (hakodate kokusai hotel)

hakodate -> lake toya (toyako manseikaku)

lake toya -> sapporo (mercure hotel sapporo  )

sapporo -> otaro -> sapporo (mercure hotel sapporo)

sapporo -> chitose

Price depends on car and room type but one of the car i like is Subaru XV Hybrid  save petrol i guess 

Questions:

1) It stated that it comes with ETC Card but is there a place i can check their toll rate? What is the min reload i need to make?
2) My full trip is actually 7d7n, arriving early morning on 7th and leaving early morning on 14th. Any comment on the above itinerary and what other city to recommend? I plan to extend another 2 nights at Sapporo

Thanks in advance.

Disneyland and Disneysea will take at least one day each. so you need to choose one of them if you're only allocating one day for the trip.
Kawagoe I think no problem cycling around.
Yokohama nothing much actually. don't think it's a must unless you really have nothing to do hahaha.
have you put Odaiba into your list? can easily spend one day there as well.
