Essential checklist

My brother and sister-in-law were down visiting last week, for only a week. Somehow we managed to do pretty much everything we wanted to do.
Here's my checklist of things to do in Japan if you only have six days!

1. Karaoke (bar and booth)
2. Temple
3. Japanese garden
4. Print club
5. Meet members of the town council (this is entirely optional, but always makes for a good photo! Hee hee)

6. Take an onsen (indoor and outdoor)
7. Meet local friends, get drunk with local friends and sing karaoke with local friends.
8. Shinkansen (what more can you say)
9. Go into a Pachinko parlour (but for God's sake don't play it! You might like it...maybe not)
10. Eat natto/umeboshi/anything else that looks like a monster from an old sci-fi film.
