Are there any direct bus rides from Narita Airport to Shizuoka City, Shizuoka?

    The only one I'm aware of is that run by Shizutetsu Express. It's a daily service between all the Narita terminals and the front of Shizuoka Station. There's only one a day, departing 16:10 (T2) and arriving Shizuoka Station 20:47. It appears to be scheduled seasonally. The current season runs until March 31 so you'd have to check the website again as you get closer to April to see if / when it is running. Cost is 6,200 yen. By way of contrast, a shinkansen from Tokyo to Shizuoka will cost about the same but the journey time is only around 1.5 hrs. Give yourself around an hour to get from Narita to Tokyo station on the train. The Shizutetsu webpage is in Japanese but here's the address if you want to take a look http://www.justline.co.jp/express/transit/shizuoka_narita_timetable.html

Japanese names you love?

I blogged yesterday about this year's top baby names in Japan, and there was quite a focus on nature and calmness in the most popular picks. I was wondering if there are any Japanese names you love for the meaning behind them. Maybe you have a friend, coworker, or even family member with a beautiful name. I'd be happy to hear what it is, and why you like it so much!

How often do you use chopsticks?

I have just written about "Chopstick Day". The second "Chopstick day" of the year! I am curious; how often do you use chopsticks? For every meal? Once a day? With certain meals only? Occasionally? Never!?

Fears in Japan that you didn't have in your home country?

I've written a number of blogs here on City-Cost about how bears are a real worry in my area these days, and it's something that I didn't have to concern myself with in my home country. I know people talk about snakes and spiders in Australia being deadly (and yes, there are some types that are), but they're not typically going to come and attack you unprovoked. Also, it's a lot easier to outrun a snake or a spider than a bear ;) I'm curious about the rest of you, if you have fears here that maybe weren't present in your country of origin. Let me know in the comments!

Christmas - shopping, meals, etc. - how are we faring?

I saw a press release this morning from FamilyMart, which promoted their festive season eats but also covered a survey about spending. The survey mentioned most people planning to celebrate Christmas at home aim to spend less than 5,000 yen on food. How does your budget look in comparison to that? Do you go all out for Christmas here if it was something you celebrated in your home country, or is it a quieter celebration owing to it not being an official holiday here? How about Christmas shopping? Have you got strict budgets in place, and have you completed your shopping or are you still looking for bits and pieces for people?
