Will our Globe sim cards work in Japan? Also the LTE? I've seen some sites kasi that offer phone/sim rental. Recommended ba to avail of those instead of using international roaming?
Hi sis! yes i use my Globe sim card whenever I go to Japan...also if you're hotel features free wi-fi make the most of it...i use chikka text on my laptop kapag nasa hotel room na para free ang text to the Phils.  ;)

am in Tokyo now..yesterday medyo malamig ang weather.nippy and cold... i  noticed there are some cherry blossom trees starting to bloom na pero mga small buds pa lang sila...di pa talaga full-bloom

kung mag cebu pacific ako, Manila to Osaka, anong route ang dapat kong gawin?

gusto ko sana mapuntahan Osaka, Kyoto, Tokyo. 1 week max lang kasi kami pwede mawala sa work

:(

I did this last December. It's possible with a JR pass. Hindi ako mahilig sa temples, so I picked 2 lang na gusto ko makita. Mostly, shopping and people watching ginawa ko. Pag gabi, I went out for cocktails lang.

Day 1: Arrived in Osaka at night, Took express train to Kyoto
Day 2: Kinkakuji & Fushimi Inari in the AM, shinkansen to Tokyo in the PM
Day 3: Shopping in Shibuya in the AM, DisneySea in the PM
Day 4: All day shopping in Shibuya, Shinjuku, and Harajuku
Day 5: Shinkansen to Osaka after brunch, shopping in Shinsaibashi, Dotonbori, Amerikamura
Day 6: Took local line to have brunch in Kobe, last minute shopping, flight back to Manila in the evening

As you can see, wala akong pinuntahan na tourist spots masyado. Kung mahilig ka sa mga ganon, kulang ang one week.

may question pa ako na isa.. yung mga officemates ko kasi kapag galing sa japan, may pasalubong sila na sweets. pa-triangle ito na mejo flat parang mochi na may laman na red bean o kaya sweet potato. anong tawag dun? sabi niya, daifuku daw pero pag tinignan ko naman sa internet hindi naman pa-triangle yun. :P

question po: magkano ba usually ang airfare papuntang Japan both Tokyo and Osaka? naghahanap ako ng idea para alam ko kung mura ba yung makukuha ko or mahal. Saka alin po mas ok puntahan, Tokyo or Osaka? Kasi Cebu Pac only has Osaka flight, walang direct sa Tokyo. Thanks>:)

^ sis, we got ours at around usd680 per person - via Delta, Manila-Narita-Manila.

Me nakita ako before na Jetstar, direct flight Manila-Narita-Manila din na nasa around php20k per person pero di ko na-book kasi di pa kami nakaka-apply ng visa nun, e nonrefundable yata, so di ko muna kinuha. When we got our visa, wala ng available for Narita-Manila leg ng jetstar so we decided to go with Delta. Maganda din sched ng Delta kasi arrival sa Narita from Manila is around 1pm, departure naman from Narita to Manila is around 6:30pm so masusulit pa din ang arrival and departure days.

^ kami rin sis, kakabalik lang nung Monday night. Bitin ang 12 days! Gusto ko pa mag-stay dun ng mas matagal...

Plan namin balik ng Japan soon, pero sa Kyoto/Osaka/Nara naman. This trip kasi we concentrated on Tokyo, with day trips to DisneySea/Yokohama/Nikko/Hakone(Mt.Fuji). We also stayed a few days with relatives in Tsukuba. Sobrang saya na sumakto yung trip namin sa sakura bloom, as in ang ganda ng full-bloom sakura!

Bagsak ako yesterday, ansama ng pakiramdam ko, dahil yata sa drastic change in weather.. Ang init kasi pagdating dito, sa NAIA 1 pa lang while waiting for luggage nung Monday night, sobrang init na.. During our 12-day trip, most days e talagang super-lamig. Siguro 2-3 days lang yung tipong di ko kelangan ng jacket.. The rest, layering talaga.. Pero keribels ko naman na di naka-boots, minsan nga wedge havaianas lang suot ko. Mas lamigin kasi ako sa katawan/braso, yung feet ok lang. Naka-leggings naman kasi ako sa ilalim ng pants so me layer din naman.

^kami din, tokyo lang ang inatupag namin ng 7 days. tapos 1 day nag-tour doon sa mt fuji. ayun, lugi kasi super foggy. hahaha. as in sumilip lang ng sandali yun peak tapos wala na. para nga din kaming asa horror film nun sa lake ashi kasi nga puro fog. haha.

sana nga soon makabalik din kami for kyoto/osaka pero parang gusto ko autumn naman. hahaha. basta hindi summer. :P

same tayo sis na lamigin lang sa braso/katawan kaya wala din ako dalang boots, puro flats lang. haha. pero nagpasiguro na ako na magdala ng trench coat at yun tri-climate na jacket, nagamit ko naman.

yung ibang days, nakiuso talaga ako na naka tights. sa susunod bibili talaga ako nung may mga stars at kung ano anong print na stockings. bwahahaha. feeling teenager.  ;D

Going to Tokyo by the end of the month! :D

Worth it ba yung daytrip to Mt Fuji? Baka kasi it's a normal sight lang naman and not so majestic?
