S1: すみません。今、よろしいでしょうか。

Yes. About half price. Exit via Shinjuku's subway exit B8. Don't forget to pass by exit A10,A8, Takano selling melon bun, very nice. =)

Don't bother, people in tokyo can speak basic english. When I was in tokyo, I spoke to one of the staff in japanese and he immediately replied to me in english.

Kyuushu, air tixs to fukuoka is cheap, regional buses to other province is about 2,000yen while highway bus to osaka is about 20,000yen.

lodging while there are places that charge as low as 3,000yen per night.

when you travel, you only buy 1 way or with return? doh

i've lived in kumamoto for some time so I know what I'm talking about. And this itinenary is conveniently travels from 交通センータ.

Also, kyoto is only 15mins train ride away from osaka station.

kumamoto is relatively cheap but also offers alot like 阿蘇山、aso farmland, kikuchi valley and not forgetting 熊本城. the people are also extremely warm, must try food includes 馬刺し and 熊本ラーメン

bus ticket to fukuoka airport is only 2,000yen while car travel to nagasaki only 2 hours.

highly recommended if you wish to get away from city life.

So many Japan experts here. I still need to refer to a map when walking around Tokyo.
