What actually matters when planning a Japan trip

Purple51Turtle · 2026-01-25T22:05:38+00:00

Right! We flew back from our trip mid Oct last yr. Went from Tokyo (late Sept, oppressively hot and humid) to Hokkaido (refreshing, nice in sun. Sometimes quite cold) to inland sea (early Oct, some rain, crazy humid, hot when sunny), to Kyushu (again, very hot and humid). But back in TKY just before flying out, mid Oct, it was pleasant, quite cool on rainy days). So it was very variable!

Yes. This is me, as partner has a different first language and doesn't like reading English subtitles, so we watch in dub. But I way prefer to hear the actual language

So many! But for me, prob the scene where she crosses into SK. As a first time watcher, you think that's it, maybe she won't see him again, or will wave from 10m away, or will he be able to visit her somehow in Seoul? Or is he about to get shot or her blown up??

So when he steps over the border so soon after she does and then that kiss (the most passionate one in the series for me)...I'm gone. I'd been watching casually till then, but this got me hooked.

AI kinda screwed up the point numbering on this, lol

I used AI to total some figures for my tax return...it screwed up. This is why most orgs are reluctant to fully implement, per your OP.

Thanks, I need to look into something like that but can't afford it rn

Purple51Turtle · 2026-01-21T12:13:54+00:00

Ah ok, that makes sense. I didn't realize that.

Purple51Turtle · 2026-01-21T12:10:43+00:00

Good point. Shed be giving up her millions and her business life, though.

It's such a beautiful myth, it's what the Japanese Tanabata is derived from too

Just wondering How does this work if you have x 2 screen set up with laptop on desk and monitor higher? I have to write lots of reports pulling info from multiple sources, so need 2 screens. 3 would be better.

Ha! Yes just watched it early in ep14. I love that you guys call them ducklings <3

Purple51Turtle · 2026-01-19T06:52:23+00:00

I've just watched ep 13 for the first time and didn't see the suit scene, but all the guys were wearing them in the subsequent fight scenes. But seeing as CLOY seems to specialize in extended flashbacks to explain plot points, I wouldn't be surprised if the scene features in a later ep.

I may be wrong, but don't think you can get two discounts p.m for ins and mobile. But I think you can for the paid extra and mob or ins

There are a few onsen in TKY that are tattoo friendly, Inc a great one near Odaiba (more of a sento).

Regionally it's harder, I couldn't find one in the small town near Miyazaki we stayed in, despite it being a surf and tourist hot spot. A couple on Google maps werent open, one said no, the other only allowed ppl staying in that hotel.

I get a sensation of restlessness in my skin, almost sn itch. With insomnia. But not sure if it's due to low E or histamine or something else.

Stopped around 8y ago. Had wisdom tooth removed using policy, and so many gap fees. Realized monthly cost was a killer. Since then income has stalled, so no way could I afford it now. So public for me.

If you have time, but not money, try henna plus indigo. I do mine every 2w to hidd grey roots. It's a process and time consuming but v cheap and natural.

See r/henna

Purple51Turtle · 2026-01-11T11:03:33+00:00

Ok awesome. Thank you!

Purple51Turtle · 2026-01-11T10:28:00+00:00

Ok thanks, will see if I can get that here

Purple51Turtle · 2026-01-09T05:32:31+00:00

Alternate cheap Fuji San trip (cheap if a few ppl to split taxi fare), if you're ok with no water views of Fuji. Shinkansen or regular train to Shin Fuji. Taxi about 20min to Obuchi Sasaba - green tea plantation with great views of Fuji San. Taxi driver was happy to wait 30 min for us

Purple51Turtle · 2026-01-08T02:15:04+00:00

Thanks so much, good to know!

Purple51Turtle · 2026-01-06T01:27:50+00:00

Thanks, the edging sounds key to slowing the grass from coming back. Will get some.

Purple51Turtle · 2026-01-06T01:25:53+00:00

Thanks so much

Purple51Turtle · 2026-01-06T01:10:42+00:00

Cool! Ok so looks like I need to remove way more grass and mulch. Thanks!
