Japan - Drunk Monk - 03-30-2026
After Tara completes the bar, she'll have a two month break. She's planning to travel and we're supporting this as part of her graduation present. We've been discussing plans for a few months now, and we're on the cusp of buying airline tickets. The plan so far is for me and her to got to Japan for two weeks - Tokyo & Kyoto - then I return home because two weeks is as much as I can get off. Tara really wants to travel on her own for a bit, so she's planning to go onward to Okinawa, and then to South Korea. She''l spend almost a month on the road.
Needless to say, we're both excited for it. Tara is too focused on graduating and switching to Bar prep mode. For me, it's a major bucket list box to check off. I've been in Narita airport in transit but that's it for Japan. Stacy has already been and won't be joining us (one of us has to tend to Yuki and his meds).
More to come...

Are you aware of ZipAir? They are a budget airline that flies direct SJ -> Tokyo
SJ -> Narita, Tokyo, Japan ~$300-500 Std (not flat - "full-flat" is much more $$) - Luggage extra, no stewardesses; order food/drink via some app: https://www.zipair.net/en/about_zipair

The reviews on zip air are so negative. We both explored it and decided against it.
