Greetings, all -
The title explains it all ...
Tokyo's Haneda airport is our stopover on JAL from Singapore to San Francisco. We arrive about 0630 and depart at 0005 the next day, leaving us 18 hours to kill. We've never been to Japan, and if we're lucky, we can sleep on our 7:40 red-eye from Singapore, so should be reasonably rested. Some questions ...
1) Is there a place in the airport to leave luggage for the day? Touring with a dive bag in tow sounds like no fun at all.
2) Is there a reasonable way for non-Japanese speaking Westerners to do a self-tour from Haneda and get back there, or is this just a bad idea? We don't need our hand(s) held, but after two weeks diving in the middle of nowhere, we aren't looking for a high-stress Amazing Race kind of day.
3) We prefer to visit countries in a low key kind of way ... no "tour guides" with a little megaphone or headset ... something a little more personal and "local", but within a reasonable budget. OK, so that's not a question ...
Any thoughts? We'd love to hear from you.
Thank you in advance for any suggestions!
