Hey Guys will be going to Japan next year. My schedule as follows :

March 28-30 Osaka
March 30 - April 1 Kyoto
April 1 - 4 Tokyo

We have pretty much paid for air tickets, and accommodation.

So I was wondering during the trip whether 55,000 yen cash is suffice to cover daily expenses such as transportation, food, mobile wifi. If there is any big purchases, I probably will cover it using credit card. But in the meantime, would you say 55,000 yen is sufficient to cover daily expenses as mentioned above.

Thanks guys appreciate all the help I can get smile.gif

anyone can translate what this meant??
"握り1貫、巻物1本よりご注文を承ります"...saw it on a sushi website but google translate makes no sense

My Japanese isn't that good but I think the gist of it is 'please order more than 1 Onigiri/ 1 Sushi '

55K yen each day or for the whole period?

Whole week, I supposed. I am still not sure about how much to bring, but since accommodation and tickets has been paid for, would that be enough?

this is the result i got if i use google translate
"-grip 1 consistently, we accept your order from a single scroll. "

No I actually study Japanese myself, it should mean ' We accept orders of above 1 Sushi / 1 Onigiri'

握り1貫 - 握り is grip as in 'handgrip' and read as 'nigiri'. But add a 'O' at the front it becomes Onigiri which is the food. 1貫 is the counter for 'sushi/onigiri'.

巻物1本 - 巻物 (makimono) stands for scroll but is another variant for sushi. 1本 is the counter for makimono.

and also ご注文 is order , 承ります is 'to receive/undertake'

So compile that together, ' We accept orders of above 1 Sushi / 1 Onigiri'

But yeah Google translate 'grip 1 consistently, we accept your order from a single scroll' = LEL

55k for whole week?
how abt a NO...try to increase it
you're there to enjoy, bring a little more
and since u say it include transportation, better include the JR shinkansen ride from osaka to tokyo
its very expensive
Thanks
mean each order/refill must be in the form of at least 1 sushi/1 onigiri?
because its a all u can eat style

OIC. Alright, definitely increase-able, My initial budget was 90k yen anyways, just wanna gauge how much is actually needed.

Can you give me the link to the website? Sometimes it's easier to translate when I actually see the website's content itself, Japanese may have a lot of double meanings in a lot of situation.

I think it simply means you need to order at least 2 sushi/onigiri per order. I mean we normally see sushi being ordered in pairs anyways and you seldom see them as 1 unit when ordered.

Just checked the train from Osaka ---> Tokyo and it is around 8.5k yen, thanks for the tip. Will definitely take that into consideration , and seems like 55k yen is pretty frugal at this point.
