* 24/03/2017: Arrive in Tokyo.

** Based on current flights, meet for lunch somewhere near Haneda?

*** I think it would be better to meet somewhere more centralised. -YYY

* <s>Do some stuff in Tokyo for a day or two (so that I can recover from travelling)?</s> Meet up with James. Leave following day.

** [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.

* Flight down to Kagoshima on Monday morning?

** ¥18,790 to fly to Yakushima on Saturday afternoon - 13:20 to 17:35. http://www.jal.co.jp/en/ . Other days flights don't show up - weird - maybe a number of days ahead thing? Flights to Kagoshima are cheaper but then we have to get the hydrofoil or something.

*** Narita Arrivals: Zolty, Alasdair, YYY, MP, MarkH, Maria, Dexter

*** Haneda Arrivals: Lmm

* Any suggestions for a meeting point? Probably a case of having a late lunch?

* Stay somewhere in Tokyo

** 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
