== Outstanding Tasks (formerly High-priority things (or things lmm is worried about)) ==
* Book things that we think might book up
** Fun2drive
*** Michael/Alasdair booked,
*** Yingke documents sent, awaiting confirmation
* Agree where we're staying each night and book
** Tokyo accommodation (Fri, 24/03/2017 only) - Yingke to make proposal
** Yakushima accommodation - Michael email sent
** Kagoshima accommodation - Yingke to make proposal
** Nagasaki accommodation - Yingke to make proposal
** Hiroshima accommodation - Yingke to make proposal
** Kyoto accommodation - MarkP to make proposal
** Hakone accommodation - Yingke to make proposal
** Tokyo accommodation - Yingke to make proposal
*** Alasdair to make proposal for capsule hotel for those interested
* i.e. whether we travel in the evening or morning for <s>Nagasaki-Hiroshima,</s> Hiroshima-Kyoto, Kyoto-Hakone and Hakone-Tokyo
** From memory Kyoto is expensive to stay in
** Otherwise it's a judgement call as to which direction we want to be flexible in (since the accommodation bookings will be what constrains how long we spend where)
* James is with us for Yakushima and Nagasaki - to confirm whether he's staying in Nagasaki on the night of Thur 30th.
== Things that can't be progressed until a later date ==
* Booking for tours of Tanegashima Space Center is 1 month ahead if I've read the site correctly
* Pop concerts
** I can help with booking via ePlus if there's anything major - JN
** If you're fine with going to see a group you've never heard of, there's almost certainly something, but it's too early to book: https://calendar.google.com/calendar/embed?src=jhqrtl9na3gev1vihqnpt3qvgo@group.calendar.google.com - JN

== Misc Planning Area ==
* JR passes are best bought from https://www.insidejapantours.com/japan-rail-pass-all/
* JR passes are best bought from https://www.insidejapantours.com/japan-rail-pass-all/
* Do we want to bring suitcases or stick to bags?
** Plan is to get 2-week passes, exchange them at Haneda on the 25th but with validity not starting until the 29th.
** Our internal flight allows 20kg of checked luggage (in any number of bags) - probably plenty.
** Getting a passmo card is a good idea for convenience - it's not any cheaper than buying paper subway tickets but it's easier
* We have agreed to take suitcases but ensure they are wheeled enough to transport between hotels and train stations easily.
* Last time I got a travel SIM from www.ekit.com which worked pretty well
** Don't buy a travel phone from them as their model can't use Japanese frequencies
 
== Pre-Trip Meetup ==
=== Sat, 18/02/2017 ===
* 12:45: Meetup around Leicester Square Station?
* Lunch at http://misato.eu/?
* 15:00 - 17:00: Karaoke at http://www.karaokebox.co.uk/mayfair/bookings/
** There is a minimum of a drink (alcoholic or non-alcoholic) per person to be bought at the bar.
** For Japanese songs, please have the song title/artist in Japanese handy (so we can look it up easily if the machine uses a song book)
** If you want to sing Japanese songs but can't read Japanese well, it may help to have a hard copy of the romanised lyrics. The room will be at basement level so mobile reception may be poor.
* Dinner at Flat Iron?
* Hang out at lmms.

** [http://www.tokyohostelskyoto.com/hostel_tokyo/tokyo-cheap-hostel.html bAKpAK Tokyo Hostel] I've stayed here twice before; it's relatively cheap and cheerful. I don't mind if people want to stay in different places in Tokyo. I would prefer that we all stay in the same place whilst we are travelling through other the parts of Japan though.
** I've stayed in [http://www.libertyhouse.gr.jp/ Taito Ryoukan]. Cheap, nicely traditional, but that does mean firm futons and poor sound insulation --lmm

*** Jetfoil to Kagoshima - 07:00 arriving 08:35 or 08:00 arriving 09:35 (makes sense if we're going to the station ticket office for 10AM).
*** Thought about JR pass logistics: assuming we use the subway etc. to/from the airport in tokyo, we can probably defer activating them until the Tuesday, meaning they'll be live for the whole rest of our trip if we do get bored in Tokyo on the last Sunday and want to head out into the country or some such. --lmm

*** [http://fun2drive-japan.com/car-tours/ fun2drive] is the original JDM sports car entertainment company near Mount Fuji, only 2 hours from Tokyo. Conveniently located at a gateway to the greatest touges (mountain passes) in Japan, we offer the largest fleet of JDM sports cars from NISSAN: Skyline GT-R & Fairlady Z, HONDA: NSX, TOYOTA: Supra & AE86, MAZDA: RX-7, MITSUBISHI: Lancer Evolution, SUBARU: Impreza WRX, and more. Whichever JDM sports car you choose, experience it on a variety of touges in Hakone, a mecca of car enthusiasts in japan, while enjoying the stunning scenery of Mount Fuji, landscapes, lakes, oceans, etc…

**** Considering the [http://fun2drive-japan.com/car-tours/Ultimate_Hakone_Drive.html Ultimate Hakone Drive] in the GT-R R35.
**** Michael (RX-7)/Alasdair (S2000)/Yingke (GT-R R35) booked
**** If more people do it, then we can swap cars (for a fee).
**** CAN I COME WITH FRIENDS AND FAMILY? Yes, your friends and family are welcome to ride together free of charge as long as your car's capacity allows. Children are welcome and we have a rental child seat available. However, for safety reasons we do not recommend children under the age of 24 months attend this tour. Pets are not allowed.
***** Put me down as interested - I guess the RX-7 would be my first choice --lmm
**** Cars have capacity for 3 additional people (NOT enough for all of us). You won't fit in the back of the GT-R unless you amputate your legs.
***** Alasdair: I have some interest in this - if I'm reading the price list right it comes to under 50,000 JPY? I'd be happy with most cars, as long as it has power steering and manual transmission. S2000 looks suitably bling, but the Super 7 looks hilarious.
