I have secured: 1 week annual leave in the middle of April. If the Cherry Blossom Forecast is correct, I will miss the cherry blossoms. But perhaps it will be wrong!
And now I have less than one month to plan my Japanese vacation.
One week is not a lot of time to do things. My initial plan, when I was thinking I'd go for two weeks in October, was to spend a lot of time walking around in the country -- but if you only have a week it almost makes more sense to stay in Tokyo and not spend your whole vacation on trains. And, I have never seen Harajuku, I have never seen Akihabara, and it would be pretty hard for me to get bored by staying in Tokyo for a week.
I still have to find a really pretty onsen somewhere.
