日本 plan ! #1

Did OSAKA research yesterday!

CHANGES: We will now head for Osaka first from Tokyo,
then travel up to Kyoto and back to Tokyo.
Have to cfm our tokyo/kyoto/osaka accomodations by October.

OSAKA: Think we'll choose the Shin-Osaka JR Stn area since that seems to be the most convenient.
Main JR lines running through, easy access to Universals + Kobe/Wakayama(which we're planning to go for a daytrip)

Have to work out the budget and see if budget allows for us to stay at the Toyoko chains. Its more expensive than the Nakanoya Inn @JR Higashiyodogawa(東淀川)Station that we checked out earlier.
But added perk : Free internet access from Toyoko rooms!

Kyoto: Sticking to Tour Club Hostel which Amy recommended and stayed at previously.
Located at the Main Kyoto Station.

Tokyo: Amy suggest i take a look at Toyoko Inn,Shinjuku branch since it's one of the prime spot in tokyo.
We'll see how,if we can secure rooms.

My TENTATIVE plan: our 1st night upon arrival from SG,Stay at Oak Hotel which is near Ueno Park(so we can check out the blossoms); Sakura Hostel,Ikebukuro for our last 5n back at Tokyo.
