Glad it worked out ok. But - - did you enjoy your trip to Japan?

It was alright, a trip off the bucket list.

Don't feel a need to return like I have other places.

Oh and another random tidbit to share, when eating at one of those noodle bowl restaurants, you get seated, order, eat, then pay.

Since it was sort of like fast food, I tried to order and pay first, whoops...:D

There are plenty of noodle shops where you choose the item you want and pay first so I'm afraid this advice wouldn't apply everywhere.

These are usually the cheapest places and closest to the fast food joints you are comparing them to. The 'vending machine' you use to pay first means that the cooks and assistants don't need to handle any dirty money.

Includes 3 Zoos including Uneo Zoo
Plus Tokyo Sea Life Park
and National Science Museum of Japan where I think Hachiko is..
Then there are a bunch of other museums I might visit if they are close by.
I was thinking about getting this pass as well as there were several sights I was interested in visiting like the zoo, Edo-Tokyo Museum, the Sword Museum, Shitamachi Museum & Metropolitan Art Museum. It seems a decent value if you even get to 4 of the included facilities.

I see error 404 on the URL.
It's been updated.

The pass can be a good gift idea.

Woah, did not know this exists! Might get it for a friend when I pop by next year since she is letting me stay in her place... again.
