It is so hard to decide what to take when travelling but it is only 12 days and it will be Autumn in Japan so not expected to be hot. Could be very cold and in some areas snow. My method for packing is to get everything out that might be useful and then do a few culls to attempt to minimise the load.
There has been a lot in the news about bears in Japan with an increase in attacks by bears and some deaths as a result. Need to think about the bears foraging for food – it seems they like acorns – but the bears don’t alter what clothes to take. When we get to Japan – might need to buy a bear bell.
Here are before and after photos …
