these three places in one day seems super rush unless you planning to just touch & go only.

So i shud stop at daiba for fuji TV and Aomi for palette town is it? How abt the rainbow bridge where actually i can get the best view to watch the bridge?

i agree, 3 main attraction in 1 day? I did one full day in Shinjuku, 1 full day in SHibuya+harajuku+aoyama. I don't think you can do all this 3 in one day lor. There are too much to see in these places.

Because I only got 3D 2N at Tokyo..

So i should stick with Shibuya and shinjuku in my first day and maybe Ginza for my night view..
How about if i put Disneyland and Odaiba for my second day...it will be from 9:00AM till 6:00PM at disneyland and after that i'm goin to odaiba...?

and my last day will be Asakusa Area -> Ueno -> Akihabara because i will be leaving at 9:00PM night bus to Kyoto..do u think i got time if i wanted to put shiba on the same day?

Not true. Lotsa ppl hand carried their backpack.. so long it's within 7kg, not so bulky & full and no prohibited items.

Ok ..thank a lot..my friend said before this when he visit tokyo he cannot bring backpack as hand carried ..he advice me to put backpack for my baggage..i hope this will be clear the air..i felt really nervous now..4 days more to go..i hope everything goin smooth..

never go japan before...but hand luggage i think got certain size one la, if your "backpack" is small enough then can bring in la... if not too big yet not small enough to put in the storage in the plane... hug like a teddy bear for >6 hours lor  unsure.gif
*
bring teddy bear for backpacking trip i dun think there will be a good idea..hehehe laugh.gif i just wanted to put my passport, dictionary and all the travel guide book as for my reference inside the backpack..


another question because i will be at osaka for one day only.. do u think is it worth it to buy icoca..or i just buy normal ticket at the station..my plan shud be area osaka castle and dotonbori for that one day..

this is my huge a$$ camera bag for korea last time... i carry with hand tongue.gif
not sure your backpack is this big or not.

monitor behind it is 24 inches, so you can guess how big the camera bag is.  tongue.gif

sudah full bloom last friday at osaka and kyoto..luckily we can experience the sakura bloom before we coming back ... such a nice experience at sakuranomiya park and osaka castle garden...when we visit philosopher path some of the tree still full with bud and some of it already bloom...what i felt so weird japanese like picnic so much although it's raining or cold..they still picnic under the sakura tree...and at tokyo so crowded either weekend or weekdays at theme park , mall ..pack with people..what time actually they goin to work...i still wonder until now..at night only got lawson and family mart open...so boring...like a dead city for tokyo, osaka and kyoto..street shop closed already at 6pm...

enjoy the pix before u see the real sakura..

mafilee bro,do u book ur ticket online or juz buy on the spot?

willer express only allowed advance booking so u shud make online booking and confirm ur date first..if later u want to change date i think still possible but still got certain day before departure u already cannot change ur reservation..read the rule first before u booking..
