Who's going? Add your name here. If folks see that quite a few are going, it may incentivize them. Could turn into some mini-DOs.

I'd be super surprised, honestly, if they cancelled the Sakhalin ferry. Two remote-ish places with a mutually beneficial tourism setup. I didn't see anything on the website about that though did find this article that indicates in the future there will be MORE ferries, maybe even April-December. Just possibly not with Heartland.

Either way, I though Rebun/Rishiri were pretty cool, worth checking out especially if you can get there for wildflowers.

Hope y'all don't mind, I plugged a wikipost at the top. Add your name there. If folks see that quite a few are going, it may incentivize them. Might turn into some mini-DOs.
This hotel deal pushed me to at long last step foot in Japan. With AAdvantage's awesome flexibility, I'll be able to change dates or even reroute and skip out at BKK/HKG/KIX/TYO for free, if I change my mind about going to WKJ...

Well, I did promise I'll never be back in my blog, didn't I? Time to keep that promise 
Weather is apparently way nicer than last time (like 20C higher than before). I might actually enjoy it this time!
Interestingly, hotel is completely sold out for the next two weeks.
