A 贅沢kinda question

Probably not the most important thing I could be blogging about, but it is taking up our thOughts here at the mo: where to go forour summer holidays.

J will take his obon holidays from sept 14 and tack them onto the long weekend for a 4 or 5 day holiday. Nothing booked, and already some of our options seemingly booked out but here are our "choices"....where would you go with a misbehaving 4 year old, teething 1 year old and their exotic-craving mummy? :

1) Taiwan (Taipei)
2) Korea (seoul. Or more expensive to go to jeju island)
3) Saipan
4) Miyako-jima, Okinawa, WITH in-laws most likely *worried about typhoons
5) Macau *actually too expensive, boohoo but I would love to go. Not sure if there is enough to do for 5 days tho
6) roadtrip to Shikoku
7) Hokkaido
8) Los Angeles for 1.09man yen( not including surcharge)* jetlag would be hell for kids tho, right?

Leaving it to the last minute, most if the cheap package tours to Korea, Taiwan and Saipan are full anyway. And I have been to Korea, LA and Macau as well as Hokkaido....
Hmmmmm what to do?????

worthy of a blog post...

Got my PR today.
- 6 and a half months after I applied for it (guess the "6 month" rule holds)
- just a few weeks after my 12th Japanniversary.
- just a few months short of my 6th wedding anniversary
- at a time when I am seriously feeling less and less happy about being in Japan....but I guess that is for another post.

I can now cross that at least off my 101 things list.

So, happy Permanent Residency to me ;)
