Been planning this all year, and reading every available source to find out how to make sure our holiday still goes ahead. All ok now (though I did sort out the ERFS/visa route beforehand regardless). Everything here is just a general guideline, with things to discover on the way if needed (mainly for restaurants). This is our first time in Japan. Please let me know what you think.
