  This year has been a weird one for holidays. I'm torn between wanting to do things, wondering if that's the right decision, and worrying about the health of my kids if we do decide to do stuff. I liked your idea of temple walks. Still being able to explore, but doing so outdoors, has been one saving grace of 2020.

  I'm with you about not having be anywhere beyond 30mins walk radius and definitely need a break. But I also did not even notice Silver Week coming, and looks like I'll be working through it... Going to find a day before or after the 4 days to go out instead, since the crowd should be less then.

  I have been trying to figure out what I want to do. I haven't decided. I really want to go to an amusement park, but I am thinking that it's not a great idea. Maybe I will go to a park instead...

  @ReishiiTravels I have been longing to ride El Dorado at Toshimaen, but sadly, the park closed August 31st. El Dorado, the antique carousel goes into storage :/ Me, too, I'll be mostly going to parks and on urban walks.

  @genkidesu U figure short train rides outside of peak times, walks to historic places, and breaking for lunch with takeout food is the best way to avoid The Three Cs. I'll go with one friend, not a big party.

  @TonetoEdo great tips - there are ways to still explore and minimize contact with others, for sure.

  I’m Definitely heading to the mountain to camp outdoors. I’m really trying to be as normal as possible especially with the kids. Be safe everyone, let’s get through this together, alive.

  @ConeHead Ah, those with families face a lot of challenges - guiding kids don't know (and I wish they didn't need to know) how scary a pandemic is, and the need to keep them active. A mountain holiday sounds like a good bet.
