Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. I wrote a web page explaining these topics. See if it's useful to you: https://adumbrate.org/pics/traveltips.html#phone
  2. https://partners-pamph.jnto.go.jp/simg/pamph/2349.pdf Other topics here: https://www.japan.travel/brochures/eng/index.php?publisher[]=1
  3. I recommend learning how to use the wayback machine. 1. Go to https://web.archive.org/web/*/https://www.tomsportguides.com* 2. Put venice in the search box 3. Click one of the pdfs It'll take you to a calendar with blue dots for dates archived 4. Click on those until you find one that has the file Here's one: https://web.archive.org/web/20150616053156/http://www.tomsportguides.com:80/Venice-05-06-2011.pdf and another https://web.archive.org/web/20211110152043/http://www.tomsportguides.com/uploads/5/8/5/4/58547429/veniceguide.pdf
  4. Search on Google with the query (no quotes): "medications japan site:boards.cruisecritic.com" and you'll get loads of hits.
  5. I've been to Sakata, but by car, so different logistics to you, plus the day I was there happened to coincide with a marathon race that closed roads in the downtown area and prevented me getting to several spots so I cannot give a comprehensive overview. The most useful online general guide to Japan is https://japan-guide.com Here's their piece on Sakata https://www.japan-guide.com/e/e7990.html and unfortunately it is not very good. It misses Somaro (Maiko performances) and Kaiko-ji (mummified priests) and Hiyoriyama Park (lighthouse and reconstructed ship). This trip report covers most of the good sights: https://www.japan-guide.com/community/mfedley/report-3272 but misses the park: https://yamagatakanko.com/en/attractions/detail_402.html Other good sources are the JNTO pamphlets https://www.japan.travel/brochures/eng/index.php Here's the one for the Sakata area, see items 5 and 6 on p3 and 4 on p4 https://partners-pamph.jnto.go.jp/simg/pamph/2129.pdf And the Japanese ports directory: here's Sakata https://www.mlit.go.jp/kankocho/cruise/detail/015/index.html and note the pdf link in there for more info.
