  1. These are the areas I love exploring! A few here I haven't been to yet so thanks (as usual) for the tips! I went to that Sake place in Monzen Nakacho on a rainy day after seeing your visit as it looked, and was, great!

  2. I missed the mini gorilla in Sangenjaya! I walked though that area after visiting a Ghibli cafe. Didn't know about that observation deck! I love an observation deck and always seek them out – next time!

  3. Been to several of these. At least two are on my "always visit" list, and others are ones I look forward to checking out

  4. Well! Bad news is i couldnt change my flight to japan again. The good tho…I can still go to Japan! But solo trip instead. I'll be in Japan in my b-day!!! 😀
