Golden Week 2025 plans?

This year's Golden Week gives us Tuesday, April 29th, and then potentially a four-day weekend from May 3rd to 6th. How are you intending to spend the break? Will you travel, "staycation", or dare I ask, work through it?

    We tried to travel over GW during one of our first years in Japan, and it was a nightmare. Ever since, we opt to stay home or just explore things locally. It's a nice time of year for walks, enjoying flowers, and so forth, so I'm not really mad about some 'forced relaxation' so to speak.

    We have nothing booked, but we'll hopefully get away for at least one night. But the kids have a lot on - karate tournaments, soccer matches etc - so a lot of the time will be spent on ferrying them around and watching their events!

Dog ate my page responses?

Hi. I just wrote a post and when I went to publish it I got an error message. Then I went to report it on the form page that comes up when you click on report error and I got a "dog ate my page" response. Anyone else experiencing technical problems with the site right now? The photo is just for visibility!
