I am seriously considering the Tokyo deal. I don't think I will have anyone to go with, but I don't mind going on my own.
Yeah, I've got a friend that's planning to take advantage of that deal by herself, even if her friend decides not to go. Just too good a deal to pass up.

Here's my 'case file' that I've built for Japan....

<<< Best place to find hotels, ryokans, minshukus or pensions in Japan
http://www.jalan.net (Japanese only)
http://www.secret-japan.com/forum/ho...okan-t439.html how to use Jalan.net

<<< Tokyo Yokohoma Guide
http://metropolis.co.jp/vg/travel_tips.html

<<< Good Japan Guide

<<< Things I want to do in Japan....

- underwater roller coaster at Cosmo World in Yokohoma Bay
- sumo wrestling match
- karaoke
- buy beer from a vending machine
- watch a kabuki play
- ride a bullet train (Tokyo to Kyoto in 2 hours @ 300km/h!)
- sleep in one of those capsule hotels
- I'm guessing the cherry blossoms have already fallen off (end of May)
- Okinawa hot springs
- Become a samurai
- Mt. Fuji
- Yakushima Island looks pretty cool (good hikes here too I think)
- Japanese snow monkeys Jigokudani Onsen near Yudanaka or Jigokudani Wild Monkey Park
