Sheesh, I know more Japanese than Not Afraid.
But unless i learn a lot more, i'm not interested in refusing all Western influences. Ok, maybe not the Mira Costa then. What's that hotel in Tokyo where Bill Murray entertains the conqubine with the famouse "me so horny" line? |

HI!
|
That hotel is the Park Hayatt in Shinjuku (near where we stayed).
We stayed at the Century Southern Tower, which was fairly reasonable and absolutely wonderful (and basically AT a major train station which made travel super convenient). |

I know very little Japanese and that made it all the more fun.
One bit of advice: don't bother to learn how to say "excuse me, do you have a menu in English?" If they do, you won't have to ask for it. If you have to ask, they don't. |

Okay, how much would I have to set aside per month for this kind of trip? Me so tempted, me have valid passport, me want to go! I'm seriously considering skipping Europe next year in favor of Japan.
Homework time!

I know... I'm so thinking of going.
While I'm far from fluent, thanks to my grandma, I can 'hear' Japanese pretty well - meaning, I can assess what the eff's going on, with a few key words. Like, I know when my grandma's talking smack about me to my cousin in Kyushu. Or maybe she was talking about nice stuff... ![]() At any rate, I know enough to be comfortable. And I can ask for a ticket to Tokyo - "Tokyo made no kippu." Oh, and I can count to big numbers... Har Har. I really want to go. I need to see what the next few months hold in store for me.
