So how? Baby like it or not? Packaging quite nice hor? Maybe cheaper in Japan? My colleague says his wife bought back so many when they went back recently.

Now thinking of staying at Hilton Bay Hotel near Disney.


Does anyone know how flexible is the hotel in allowing a family of 5 (2A3C below 12) to squeeze into a room?

Hi I have tentatively booked Citadines Shinjuku based on some of your recommendations..however, the cost is quite high as we need to book two rooms due to 5 of us. Am considering booking through Airbnb..however I seemed to have read somewhere that it is now illegal to book Airbnb in Japan?Is this correct? Thanks in advance for your help

I've stayed there before as I mentioned. Rooms are famously huge. Hilton TB has rooms for 5, so you might not need to squeeze at all

They sell at Meiyida supermarket at Clarke Quay Central. If you go to HK, TW, you can get Wakodo as well. I also packed Pigeon porridge for variety's sake. They are sold at Kiddy and Robs.

But you must buy the right \"age type\" (9mos, 12mos, etc). If your bb is older, u can't buy the \"younger\" packs, cos not enough nutrients and contain less solids.

i know wakodo has many diff favours but i scare my gal dont like strong favour so i chose the simplest one to test it out .. though i know it is not for her age group :oops:

Hi,

I’m planning to bring my kids (13yrs & 8yrs) to Tokyo end Nov. As DH unable to go I’m bringing my kids there myself. This is the 1st time to Tokyo, any recommendation of hotels??

For airlines I’m actually looking at Delta & JAL as they are cheaper compare to SQ and ANA. Any review of these 2 airlines, which is better??

Thanks in advance.

ANA is having promotion and it is cheaper than JAL , are you sure you dont want to consider that ?

Thanks ptb7476. Will check out the price.


Btw, any difference between Delta, ANA & JAL?
