Tried that but i still being charged $22 for the FedEx. Maybe my passes not expensive enough. I m buying a pair of kansai wide area passes.

First train from osaka is 07:49 and reaching Kinosaki onsen at 10:48,I guess you should be able to do min 2 to 3 onsens and lunch plus an early dinner. Last train out is 18:18Have anyone tried doing a day trip to kinosaki onset from Osama before. I know it is advisable to stay 1 night there but then I prefer to keep my budget low. I will depart early and back at 5pm over there. I will be using ksnsai wide area pass. I never try onsen before so how the experience as in winter?

if you STAY in kinosaki,
the onsens are free . all 7 of them during your stay
the ryokan will give you a pass
2 questions:
1) Would you recommend a first timer (with family) to spend say 9 days in Tokyo area or 12 days for both Tokyo and Osaka/Kyoto?
I am open to both suggestions but not sure if Osaka/Kyoto is worth the effort. Most likely visiting around mid-end May. Not really into temples but prefer historical and scenic sites.
2) Are money changers in Tokyo/Osaka competitive? I am asking because I might not be able to change money in SG before I head to Japan.
Thank you!
Hi all,
Anyone have experience buying laptop in Akihabara? Worth getting it with the tax refund?
Thanks
Was considering also but decided against.
Local models have Japanese keyboard. Have to check if they have international warranty.
Have to see if change language to English.
Some stores have credit card promotion. Can get discount of 5%.

Spending all 9 days in tokyo r generally fine. I went there twice. As the first time i went there for 5 nights was definitely not enough.
For 2, not competitive. Money changers at arcade are open on Saturday morning. Last resort is mustafa.
