We have done the Pacific crossing 2 years ago at the end of April and it was quite smooth ! In fact it was smoother than most of the Atlantic crossings (6) we have done so far !

I did some research for my own situation and I found that the trains between Tokyo and Yokohama do not run from midnight to about 4.30 am !

Hi !
We went there , in Figueres from Barcelona , with a car rental in November 2014 .

We then had lunch in a restaurant nearby ( excellent and affordable paella ) and then took the road to visit two of the Most Beautiful villages of Andalousia : Besalu and Castelfollit de la Roca . A very interesting and inexpensive day !
