anyone have any useful tips for visiting Japan ?
Yeah be rich.
I'm heading there next week. My wife has been there 100 times but it's my first time. She said you need to get the hotel you are staying at to book your reservation at the restaurants because they only take reservations in Japanese at the nice places.
This is my hotel room view from what I consider downtown Beijing. I really like this view. 
This is one of my favorite North Korean foods that I eat a lot of. It's also a northern Chinese dish but I think it's origins are Korean so I'll give them the credit. It's a lightly fried sweet pork. 
It's the CCTV building. Also called the underwear building because of its interesting look, haha.
Cool to see the buildings that Walmart shoppers built.
Well after China I went to Japan which was awesome and I highly recommend for a vacation. But you need to research it well and it's also a place I personally would never live. But as far as vacations go A+. It has great food, good hospitality, and beautiful places to see.
After that was the roughest travel of my life that ends tomorrow.
I had an emergency back in Utah, my best friend had minor cancer a couple years ago and everything seemed fine, until I was in Japan and her wife told me it came back and spread to her brain and lymph nodes. Obviously not great. So I decided I needed to see her ASAP because who knows what will happen and I have vacation time now. So 5 hours back to China rest a day, 13 hours to Ethiopia, 6 hours to Ireland, 14 hours to Chicago rest a day, 3.5 hours to SLC, and 2 hours to get to Utah county in rush hour.
That was well worth it but rough to say the least. But I had to be back a few days later for my own treatment that I thought was minor surgery. So 3.5 hours to Chicago and spend the night, 17 hour flight to Ethiopia, 6 hour flight to South Africa, spend 3 days there for surgery, and tomorrow I fly back to Ethiopia after having skin cancer removed.
Probably won't fly for a minute. I'm a little jet lagged so forgive the more typos than usual.
Oh and **** cancer

I hope for the best for everyone, but why fly from Japan to China to Ethiopia to Ireland to Chicago? Why not go from Japan to the states? Seems weird to me, a non-world traveler.
Yes **** cancer indeed. Hope all is good for you. Skin cancer can be really rough.
Yeah, it is much easier to fly from Japan to USA. But I already had tickets back home to Ethiopia and had a hard time changing them, plus I had a bunch of luggage's from living in China before to take home that proved to hard to get back any other way.
Also thanks.
