Changes to Japan itinerary

It sounds like one could spend years in Tokyo and not see everything. Luckily, my husband wants to run the world marathon majors, so we'll have at least one more trip there (and I'm sure more, since it sounds like most people who visit Japan love it).

It's shocking how large the city is. You can take the subway an hour away from Tokyo station and still be surrounded by 20+ story buildings.

It was always a stop before the sumo experience and moving on out of Kyoto. But it was not a quick stop, we spent a sizeable amount of time there. It was early in the morning to miss out on all the other tourists (which we did - we saw the hordes arriving as we left). But yes, maybe they'll just make it a later morning.

Sayhello

I forgot you've been on this trip.

The only other thing I could think of would be moving up everything and getting to Takayama earlier, but IDK if the sumo place could accommodate.
