I'll be going to Japan for nine days in mid-April. Just Osaka, Kyoto, (possibly) Nikko, and Tokyo. I've no idea what to expect weather-wise, and I've got to get all my packing done a good deal before I leave (long story).
All I can be sure about bringing right now is:
-camera
-socks
-underwear
-deodorant and other toiletries
-paper and pencils
-cell phone
-grammar and kanji dictionaries (I plan on conversing with the locals... though I have a good feeling they'll run away screaming.)
-extra spending money
I don't know what kind of clothing I should bring for this time of year, and please post any other nifty items that it would be smart to take along. And is there anything around this time of year in the area I'll be that I'll want to look into?
Suggest away!
