There is one train line (Keikyu) actually link HND & NRT, so you can choose a stop on that line, put things in a locker and check out the surrounding area. If it's me I'd stop in Higashi Ginza or Nihombashi. (That early in the morning probably more Nihombashi). Another way is go to Tokyo...

Look what I found...😉 https://www.australianfrequentflyer.com.au/community/threads/%E5%8C%97%E5%9B%BD%E3%81%AE%E7%A7%8B-autumn-in-northern-japan.95398/post-1978989 I don't remember writing this TR but clearly did during lockdown boredom...

Afaik most of the world do bathers? Like, in Australia?

I think the bathhouses in Taiwan are mostly Japanese style, so yeah naked only.

Ah, I remember having this conversation here with someone..... a few months ago maybe? The one @OZDUCK posted above is in T1. The one @RooFlyer went to was in T2 near Gate 4. There are 3 CI lounges in TPE. 3rd one is in T2 upstairs near the EVA lounges. This one usually is less crowded and have...

Kusatsu! more sulphur than you ever need 🤣

That is a shame! Onsen is probably my favourite part of staying in Japan...(to the surprise of no one!) But many other wonderful things to try as well 😉

Thank you. Yeah back to normal now but I'm very salty about SQ this time! My first bad experience with them, sigh...

She had a theory that Miyajima is just so overrun by tourists that people simply can't be bothered anymore...apparently that was not the only bad service there but the worst.

Side note, a lot of English speaking people left the industry during covid... I find the service level drop off obvious in some cases... I'm speaking Japanese now to make up the gap but that's not possible for everyone! Friend of mine who speaks Japanese fluently found herself facing a lady in...

Sounds like she was not having a good day though! I probably would complain. Trust me I have done that in Japan...

So this is what their website is saying: Various drinks on offer in the lounge, Juice & milk during breakfast, black tea, coffee, honey ginger tea after 9pm. Again, I don't drink so I might be completely off here but I don't think ryokans offer free alcoholic drinks in general. They will...

This was really odd...I didn't have any problems with anyone there...in fact I recalled excellent service all around! Things could have changed though, 8 years is a long time. But then I didn't leave the place once checked in or changed dinner time, nor do I drink....so can't really...

The National Palace Museum was amazing! There were free guided tours in English and Chinese several times a day. I joined a tour once and the lady was an expert on ceramics, she talked us through the various collections in great details, highly recommend!

I've never been to that part of Japan, but this one is very famous... https://www.sanyoan.com/

Yeah I went to have a look on IKYU It does look a bit old....however price seems to be about 20K Yen on average so I'd say 32K was definitely high!

Din Tai Fung in Taipei I found to be much better than the ones here (Melbourne at least!)...

You didn't stay at Lake Akan or am I missing something?

Ahh you went! This is still one of my top favourites after all these years 😍

Hooray! Finished another TR 😎 Thank you all for reading!
