Yoyogi Park - mostly cosplayers right? My gf and I don't really fancy cosplays so didn't want to go there.
Tokyo tower replaced with Tokyo Skytree. tongue.gif
Roppongi wanted to go during Ginza day, but my friend say is quite a distances so I decided to drop it. Still in my plans if we have time to spare.
Zojoji shrine? Never heard of it. Will look into it and see if is fits into which day.

Thanks! notworthy.gif
Wanted to go Yokohama but then my schedule seem too packed. LOL.
I did have Nikko in my plans, but my gf decided not to go cause it's gonna spend whole day there. Not many days we can spend there also. sad.gif

Do let me know how's the weather as I think you'll be back when I'm heading there. tongue.gif
Yes. But the itinerary is for reference. Can skip any of the location anytime. Created this itinerary just to make sure we don't wander when we have finished visiting places. Definitely won't have enough time to go all these places IMO. laugh.gif

ahha..I no need to tell you the weather after I come back...I can tell you now....It's gonna be freezing cold especially when the wind blows......brrrrrrr

Haha, I have friend there now and they said the same thing. Just wondering, you bought ultra heattech? Or what kind of inner wear you bought to tahan the weather in Japan?

the uniqlo heatech, I find it cannot tahan one loh. I bought my longjohn from Kok Kong in KL. Then I layer with a turtleneck wool sweater and then outside is the down jacket I bought from Kok Kong too. On top of that, winter hat and a scarf is a must.

They say heattech cannot tahan, but ultra can wo.. I'm thinking which to buy now since you said Kok Kong got better reputations.
Ahh okok. But then Tokyo got snow meh? tongue.gif

The problem with heatech is the sleeves keep sliding up...it doesnt stick to the skin...kok kong one is really tight and it's important to retain heat.

OH yes. Together. That's why I am having problem now as I don't know what other ways that I can take nice picture without a tripod and ask ppl to take for us. She has a thing with the angle. sweat.gif

I use a tripod and a wireless trigger. As for tripod, you can buy a foldable one. It can fold into like 30cm in length.

Something like this : https://www.bhphotovideo.com/explora/photog.../travel-tripods

Alright, thanks for the link. I am also thinking if I should bring my camera along. I'm only using canon 500d, got prime, zoom and wide angle lens. Not sure which lens to bring.. hmm.gif I found some tripods in lelong, mudah website for like RM30. Those should do it right?
Hmm, then really need to prepare for the worst. I've bought scarf cause it looks nice, then I realized I actually need it for Tokyo trip. laugh.gif Water proof shoe.. don't think I have any.. need to spend money again.. sweat.gif Now need to hunt for gloves. Saw Muji selling those smartphone friendly gloves. Anyone know what are the choices besides Muji?
DisneySea ya? My gf went Disneyland in HK, so she wanted to go DisneySea this time. I'm abit skeptical about rollercoasters, is still bearable right? Too fast I scare I pee in pants. laugh.gif

Just wondering, where you guys got your tickets? I'm planning on buying it from klook. Wanna see if there's any other ways to get it cheaper..

Hello experienced travelers,

I'm currently planning a trip to Sapporo with the following flight plans.

1) KUL -- KIX -- CTS

2) CTS -- NRT -- KUL

My concern is for the 2 hour transit times in both KIX and NRT.  I'm wondering would it be too short for a first time traveler.  Your opinions would be very much appreciated notworthy.gif (I tried searching the forums and couldn't find anything)
*
Are you taking Peach to CTS from KIX?

No, I'm planning on JAL.

Then 2 hours is sufficient.
