Holiday Plans 2025

Washington DC in December

 

Going to Singapore and East coast of Australia at the end of the month. Any advice or must-dos would be welcomed and appreciated

 

At least here in Switzerland, Japan has become a popular destination in last few years - never was high on my list of places to visit but have always loved the food and curious about the culture. Our kids are anime & manga nutters so I suspect they will have sensory overload

We’ll visit rural Japan a bit as well, Izu peninsula

 

It's a anime and Manga paradise mate. My son and his wife are, and loved every second.

 

I was asking my son for some advise for you FCBarca. He said get an E SIM as it's better than your normal simcard. and if you're going to rural Japan, take cash as some rural shops don't accept credit or debit cards. And he was telling me that the next time they go back,(they do want to go back, as it was amazing), they're not taking lots of clothing as most hotels have a laundry service or laundry room, so you can wash your clothes and then get them dried. He said booking the Bullet train accepts credit cards, but some local transport systems only take cash. He told me to tell you you'll need to take extra money with you as your children will love, and want , everything on sale as far as Manga and Anime is concerned. He said you'll love it.

 

It won’t be this year but really want to see the San Siro or go to a game there before it gets demolished as it’s been confirmed now that it will be.The details of the plans for new stadium only getting published halfway into next year so time yet.

 

Generous share, @johnboy19

Yes we’ve already compiled quite a bit on what to expect from friends and YouTube videos - the absence of public trash receptacles for example was useful information to prepare for

I’m not sure how to prepare for the voracious appetite my kids will have for buying everything
