Thanks for all the info, yeah we are taking a good chunk of change with us, and I know my brother in law has a lot of stuff planned and I wont even begin to know what/where we are going. I know we are staying downtown during Golden Week and was told you can walk pretty much to everything fun around there.
They also mentioned taking the bullet train out of town and such. Being they are like 1 1/2 hrs I believe from what I will call downtown tokyo we wont be there the whole time, but we plan on checking out many bars, restaurants, temples etc.
I am not a big race fan but i hear its a distance from the Air Force Base there, at least a couple hours. Sports are always fun live no matter if you are into them or not, i don't dislike racing but just never watch it.
I went and bought a book with a map published in 2004 that was all about Tokyo and has restaurant info, site seeing info, shopping info etc.They have lived there for 5 years going on 6 so I am sure they know quite a bit (his wife has lived there for like 10 years).
We are really pumped and will definitely share pictures, only thing we are not looking forward to is the 13+ hr flight to get there and back
