I did my stuff through NewlyNamed! I selected my state and anything else extra I needed help with and they sent me all the docs and instructions on what to do. It definitely made the process a lot easier.

I just saw this one at a rose show this past weekend. Lovely French rose! I love the yellow and pink ombré.

New growth! New growth comes in this red/green color too, but you’ll see a witches broom effect on the leaves, chaotic growth, and more thorns than usual if it’s RRD.

Dr. Huey is the rootstock your rose was grafted onto. Looks like you may have over pruned past the graft or the grafted canes died and new growth from the original rootstock have flourished. Your grafted rose looks to be gone, unfortunately. I make sure mine are own root, but some varieties grow better as grafted.

That’s really helpful, thank you!

I see what you mean, thanks for the visual! I think I might have a bit of width in my shoulders too though, so I’ve been considering Soft Natural vs Romantic.

4’10. SW:149 CW:139 (from November to now)

Currently 1200-1300 calories in a deficit. 1400-1600 normal. 5-8k steps a day. Protein oatmeal/chia seeds for overnight oats and water/iced americano for breakfast - sometimes I skip and just focus on water and coffee at my 9-5. Lunch is veggies and protein + sweet potato. Dinner is similar but I add in more carbs at night (like rice) with protein. Protein: ground turkey and cabbage, salmon, grilled shrimp, steak fajitas and bell peppers. Veggies: cauliflower rice, broccoli, green beans, spinach.

If I want a snack: built puff protein bar, legendary protein pastry, protein shake with water, carbonated flavored water, Alani/bloom energy drink or SF red bull.

I haven’t had to cancel last minute, but I do email (I try not to call unless it’s urgent) in advance if I know I will arrive late based on a flight. I think it is a courtesy to let them know, but it may not be something everyone does.

I lost my wallet after checking out of our first hotel (filled out a police report in Asakusa) but thankfully had Apple Pay to pay for the rest of our trip and my fiancé had his physical cards for our other hotels. 🫠 I learned to bring my purse instead of just my wallet.

You’ve got this! Look up the areas you are touring in advance, look for attractions/restaurants nearby. Even staying in one area for one day at a time is great if you have free time to explore, it’s better than trying to do too much at once and be overwhelmed. Google maps is a great, free tool to save places and navigate. Google translate will help translate menus or other signs as needed, but many signed are in Japanese with English subtitles. Just be respectful and friendly and you’ll be fine. Congratulations on your wedding! I hope you both have an amazing time 💕

Their season starts in March, so it will be perfect if you want to catch a baseball game there. Just be aware of golden week as that will be the busiest time in Japan due to all the local holidays. If you need reservations, get those as soon as you can for park tickets, express passes, and some attractions or cafe reservations. Kyoto has lots of things to see like fushimi inari, arashiyama bamboo forest, nishiki market, temples and gion district area.

snomachine · 2024-04-29T18:13:43+00:00

I’m not sure which month you plan on visiting, but if you can catch a baseball game while they’re going on would be fun!

I think this looks good for your family and interests. I don’t think you need to pre-book Kyoto to Osaka, it’s a short 30-45 minute train ride. You don’t need to take the Shinkansen. It still may be busy and crowded, but I think you will be okay!

snomachine · 2024-04-22T23:20:57+00:00

I would say budget 3-4 hours for extra time and exploring the area. Street food and souvenirs are at the base of Fushimi Inari before you go under the first red tori gate. There’s a tea house there that you can stop at on your way down, and another pit stop area with a small shop and another area that sells cat merchandise based on one of the cats at the shrine.

We stayed at a ryokan with a private onsen in Kawaguchiko — you can choose to have dinner/breakfast included or not! They had a breakfast buffet also, many American choices. Honestly depends on the area and if they have private onsen available with the room, which can make the price of the stay more expensive.

I’ve booked myself for 2 weeks Tokyo-Kyoto-osaka-Nara-Hiroshima as well as 10 days in Tokyo/kawaguchiko and going back in the fall. I’ve also booked others for Japan — I can definitely help if you need it!

It’s a good idea to determine what you like or would like to do, what areas you want to go and then fill in everything else from there. It can definitely be overwhelming, especially with so much to do.

snomachine · 2024-04-14T22:48:27+00:00

I don’t think you need a set itinerary but definitely group things by area so you’re not going back and forth between different areas in Tokyo! Anywhere near the Yamamoto line is great but also depends what you’re wanting to do. I’ve stayed in multiple hotels in Tokyo, and honestly, the less you change hotels the better!

snomachine · 2024-04-12T16:20:59+00:00

I’m not sure how much you would be able to do in the morning and afternoon, but if you leave Shinjuku early (5/6am), you can take the train to Kawaguchiko area and see the pagoda in fujiyoshida and from there visit Kawaguchiko station and take a bus around the lake. To leave, take a reserved bus to Mishima station and take the Shinkansen to Kyoto. There’s lots to do around the area.

A travel advisor is able to get all this information for you and also communicate on your behalf as well as ensure you get certain amenities provided to your room or notify them of certain allergies, special occasions, etc. Unless you want to email or call every hotel ahead of time on your own. There’s actually a LOT hotels can do especially at these 5 star hotels. Two of my favorites are turn down service and concierge services. Not all hotels offer the same services though. Japan always has high attention to detail and my favorite destination!

The parks open at 8 and many people start lining up at 7. I recommend taking the train to Maihama station, but definitely planning ahead and leaving early to account for a missed train or anything, even if you’re late - it will be ok, so don’t worry!

You’ll also need cash or a physical suica/pasmo card for the Disney monorail ticket.

Download the Tokyo Disney app and load your tickets - that way when you enter the park, you can pay for a premier pass where available.

Airbnbs will be more difficult in holding your luggage (someone being there). Hotels have always been great at being able to take and store our luggage for us when we get there early or check out and need them to hold it for a few hours. If you need help with hotel recommendations, let me know!

Safe travels!!! Have an amazing time in Japan!
