Japan Thread 3

[msbrick]

^ temp is now getting higher. Though expect a lot colder than Baguio in the evening. If it rains, temp will drop dramatically. I suggest long-sleeves and jackets. Are you planning early or late apr?

@sneakylizzie if you're ok to splurge tickets for Ghibli, there will be last minute tickets for bidding in Yahoo though expect 5kup. Fujiko F Fujio is ok pero medyo pambata.. unless you're really a fan of doraemon

@edhel_espyn from my experience 2014 and 2015 weather, mukhang ok pa naman. It's considered as summer weather na sometimes 24+ in the day but good thing is it's not as humid as PH weather. Though we'll never know due to climate change

Sobrang laking difference ba ng lamig sa Japan between November and December? 

[msbrick]

^ In Tokyo and Yokohama, Nov & December is Autumn. I think constant yung temperature around 10-15C It will usually drop during winter timing (Late Dec, Jan, Feb, Early Mar).

Nagiging weather adviser  na ata ko Anyway based on exp lang to hehe.

thanks sneakylizzzie & msbrick. really helpful.
we'll be there on april 17-22. siguro ok lang mag-sandals no..? hindi talaga ako mahilig sa closed shoes eh. hehe

^Download a weather app on your smartphone or check mo sa internet ang forecasts for that week, meron na ngayon. http://www.accuweather.com/en/jp/tokyo/226396/april-weather/226396?monyr=4/1/2016

Mauna lang pala ako sa iyo ng 2 days sa Tokyo. Lamigin ako so below 18 degrees, winter clothes, 18 to 22, cardigans and sweaters, minsan scarves, above 22 summer clothes. Closed shoes especially in a city like Tokyo where you walk most of the time is appropriate. Nakakabawas din ng lamig. I've seen a lot of tourists wearing sandals in Tokyo na hirap na hirap maglakad.

[msbrick]

^ agree with ataypool. bihira din naka open shoes dito even on Summer unless papunta silang beach If magsandals ka, I guarantee na may titingin ng paa mo. Either maamaze sila na maganda feet mo or maamaze sila naka open shoes ka on cold weather

Medyo kinakabahan ako sa visa ko im a sahm ma aapprove kaya ako? Ill be travelling with my fiance and his family.

[shygirlme]

^wag ka kabahan sis may friend ako same situation kayo approved naman sya.

[sneakylizzie]

Nasa Tokyo na nga pala ako. Marami nang nagbloom na sakura pero mas magbloom pa raw sila sa mga susunod na araw.

Kaya naman magets agad yung train system nila. Ang challenging talaga eh yung tamang exit. Laking tulong ng Google maps dito at yung mapa sa loob ng station hahaha.

Mainit sa tanghali (as in papawisan ka), pero sa gabi talagang lumalamig. Definitely malamig sa gabi. Tamang layering lang talaga. Sa umaga, kaya ng two layers lang. Pero sa gabi di ko na kaya. Hahaha

@sneakylizzie enjoy your stay in JP In case maligaw ka talaga, don't hesitate to ask. Accomodating Japanese people even if they don't know english. They will lead you to the place.

Sa Japan, Tokyo & osaka. Ano mas maganda? Pag Both kasi need pa ng bullet train diba... Namamahalan kasi ako kaya baka 1 trip per place muna. Haha.

What's better, Japan or korea?

[shygirlme]

^depende kasi sa trip nyo sis. if more on city Tokyo kayo, Osaka is province kasi. kami both namin pinuntahan kasi ako I love Disneyland husband ko naman gusto ng Harry Potter na nasa USJ. pwede naman kayo mag bus if di nyo kaya mag bullet train pero since don na din kayo matagal nalang kayo don kesa bumalik pa kasi mas mahal pero kung may budget naman kayo bumalik why not.

Although I love both countries, I can say that Japan is better when it comes to sights and attractions Sobrang daming pwedeng gawin at puntahan sa Japan. Re. Osaka and Tokyo, both cities are great! Depende na lang talaga sa interests nyo kung saan kayo pupunta. Kung mahilig kayo mag food trip, go for Osaka. Kung potterhead ka, nandun ang WWOHP sa USJ. Kung mahilig sa Anime, Otaku Culture, Cosplay or anything weird and bizarre, go for Tokyo
