1) actually for the most part it’s not as insane on public transport as I thought. The weekend is busier than the week and we avoided rush hours though since we don’t have a death wish!
2) the hotels provide toiletries including tooth and hairbrushes. So that’s less to pack. It turns out Shisedo does good face wash too - so I’m going to buy some soon! Thanks Keio Plaza hotel for providing some so I could find that out!
3) heated loo seats are the best - and so are all the fun loo buttons. I miss them already. I was also particularly amused that in public toilets you can get the loo to create a rushing water sound for decencies sake.
4) the food at the convenience stores is nice and you could just eat from there very cheaply. Hotels with rooftop bars are awesome- it’s on my list of things to check for when booking a place, along with “close to transport” and “has a shower that is Emma-friendly”. Hotels with varied restaurants are good after a day of much tourusting - sadly hotel food is NOT cheap!
5) using cash all the time sucks! It’s too fiddly and annoying. I wish I’d loaded up my metro card with buckets of cash since it turned out you could use them in lots of shops and restaurants. I’ll do it next time for sure!!!
