http://www.apple.com/jp/shop/gifts/new-year http://japanese.engadget.com/2016/12/25/apple-2017-1-2/ According to Apple and Engadget Japan website, there will be no "Lucky bag" in 2017. :(

@KevinC Thank you. I was thinking that might be the case but hoping for something different.

There wasn't one this year, but if you're around next year there are Japanese electronic stores that have lucky bags, like Bic Camera. It's obviously not the same as Apple, but if you're into other brands of electronics it might be up your alley!

@Nednettinc Thanks for the tip. I wonder why they didn't have one this time?!

Film Cameras in Tokyo

So I'm looking for a SLR film camera (maybe Minolta or Nikon). I've seen tons on Amazon but I prefer seeing the actual product first before buying it. Also, I want to look for better deals. For sure there are tons in Akihabara but I don't know where to start looking in there. And I wanna know if there are areas I can check other than Aki. Thank you. :D

Stand Up Paddling in Japan

Hi, does anybody know of a group for Stand Up Paddling around the Tokyo area. My Japanese is still poor so I need a group that has English speakers. I've checked MeetUp but there isn't anything there. I have emailed Yokohama SUP Club for information. I'm looking for regular paddle buddies to explore the rivers, lakes and seas around Tokyo area and possibly further afield.
