Uji, LOVE the new website/format! (5 years since our last trip to Japan) The BEST Japan travel website, and only one I use and recommend.
Visiting in December, around Christmas. Tokyo 5 days, looking for a side trip. Does not need to be onsen. Previously visited, Hakone, west side Izu Peninsula, Nikko, Kamakura, Kawagoe.
Considering Takaosan.....what's it like in late Dec?
Mahalo, PH

Aloha William,
Thanks for the warm welcome....and you remember me!
Yes, finally getting back to Japan, just Christmas break trip. What do you think of Takaosan during that time? Worthwhile, or save for another trip?

Hi PH
Yes, I remember you when we exchanged ideas here back in Feb 2009. You are one of the few accommodating seasoned travelers with positive feedback in the forum. And you had given us some additional information on one of our beloved region in Japan - Tohoku.
Takao-san is nice but I would save it for a visit in the fall as it is most beautiful during autumn foliage season.

Aloha,
Thanks for your kind thoughts. I'm puzzled about your statement about my positive feedback....I don't know anyone who hasn't enjoyed their trip to Japan! What is there not to like? Gracious people, delicious food, clean and safe environment, even for a non-Japanese language speaker like myself.
Tohoku-yes, it was definitely a highlight of our Japan travels....so many memories.....one year before the tsunami....
We will stick to Tokyo, and spend a couple of days in Narita. Just a trip to reconnect.....and EAT!! :)
Any suggestions are welcomed.
PH
