Japan will be hot and humid during our visit. Be sure to bring light clothing.
Although, adults may be tempted to bring tanktops and shorts, in Japan, usually children wear tanktops and shorts. Adults should wear slacks or skirts. Ladies, remember you might find yourself sitting on the floor where a short skirt would be very awkward, so knee length or longer would be much more comfortable. Men, I'm sure your legs are lovely, but please wear long pants.
A good, comfortable, pair of walking shoes will be a must. We'll do a lot of walking in Japan. If you plan to buy shoes for the trip, be sure to get them soon and break them in. Nothing could be more miserable than blisters on a tour. So plan ahead. Break em in.
Be sure to bring several cotton handkerchiefs. Napkins and paper towels are unsual in Japan. Restautants and restrooms often do not have towels. Handkerchiefs are also a good way to wipe away perspiration during the day.

Out of curiosity... How many days of clothing should we plan to bring. That is will we be able to do laundry at any of the hotels?
Bring a blank tablet for rubber stamping.
For children, scrapbookers and anyone just wanting a souvenir, bring a pad of blank paper for capturing rubber stamped images at the different sights we visit. In the past I've found them at train stations, museums, castles...
I'll bring an example to choir practice if anyone we would like to see.
