I might be in Tokyo (Shinjuku) and/or Kadena (Okinawa) for about 2-3 days in Dec., if the military flight Iโm taking is delayed at Yokota Air base and/or Kadena air base. I have never been to Japan so I have outlined the possible details of both short stays thoroughly below. Please let me know what you think and list ANY suggestions, advice, ideas, or anything else that would be useful. Mahalo!!
