In this guidebook Abby, her husband Matt, friend Yuuko and her cat Kitty Sweet Tooth show readers a restaurant where clowns drive robots and mermaids ride on sharks, fantastic shops for lovers of everything from vintage manga to dollar-store treasures, great places to take kids, famous sites both old and new, and must-visit spots and even a few spots outside the city. This guide also helps you navigate everyday life in Tokyo, such as train etiquette, trash disposal, tricky toilets, department store fitting rooms and the surgical mask phenomenon. There is also a special family travel section for those traveling with children, as well as information on ways to prepare ahead of time to make the most of your stay in Tokyo.
However, the information most needed by me has to do with JR Rail Pass. I wasn't considering a rail pass for my Autumn trip. I thought that I would take cabs and buses for places not within walking distance from my hotel. After discovering just how expensive cabs are, I have decided that I need the rail pass. It's a good thing I figured it out at this time because ordering one takes five months and it has to be purchased before your trip. I can pick up the pass upon arrival at the airport in Tokyo. Another line! The author has done a great job of explaining that the train stations have information in both Japanese and English. I wasn't expecting to see English posted on transportation hubs. In addition, I was not aware that the SIM card in my smart phone may not work in Japan. I am worried about being able to take photos and store them on the device but I have never heard anyone talk about this so I don't know what to believe.
I love that the comic strips have dialogue in a large font. It is easy for me to read. Also, it is amusing to read that the favorite Christmas meal in Japan is Kentucky Fried Chicken. It's a little weird by Japan is not have many Christian churches. Most citizens follow the Shinto faith.
The Cool Tokyo Guide is a fantastic resource and if you are going to travel to Japan, I recommend that you take a look at it. ( )
