    Made any travel mistakes lately?

    Yep we have the IDPs but they wouldn’t accept it without the actual licence (nor looked at my partners at all) Some news! The restaurant got back in contact and it is there! So… waiting to hear back if they are kind enough to post it to our next destination (including a few bonus euros of...

    Made any travel mistakes lately?

    Good thought and had a look into it and is possible, but I renewed my licence a couple months ago and that took two weeks to arrive to home in the same state. So by the time I did it and got shipped over it just wouldn’t be worth the hassle I don’t think

But yep always the preference is the night before Now the...

    Anyone used a car seat for child on SQ? PE & J

    Hi All, Has anyone used a car seat for their child on SQ recently (when purchased their own seat, he is over 2 but under 3)? Our little fella is pretty busy, and being able to have him in a seat he uses all the time will be really helpful, plus I think he will sleep better in it. I have...

    Hokkaido

    Re Suica Card I don’t know about android, but on iPhones you can add a Suica to your Apple Pay wallet directly in the wallet app before you even get to Japan, with no other activation required (no third party app required at all). Load it directly with whatever yen you want direct from the...
