DH was offered a great contract for 3 months in South Korea (Ulsan) this month and I just learned that his company offered to pay for plane tickets for me and our two daughters (3 and 6yo) in business class from Montreal to Seoul. We were thinking that I will join him in Seoul after his contract ends December 8 where we'll stay 4-5 days until we recover from jet lag (a 13h time difference) and to visit Seoul. Then I want to go to Japan for 2 weeks and come back to Canada between Christmas and New Year.
I am OVERWHELMED!!! Asia was never on my vacation radar but this offer is too good to pass. I am really excited to visit Japan but have NO CLUE where to start. I know that I want to go to Tokyo Disneyland for 2-3 days and that's about it.
I really need the help of experts. Do you have any suggestions on books or websites for the planning? What hotels should I consider (not deluxe)? Other than Disneyland, what are the must to do with young kids? Other than the obvious Tokyo and Kyoto, is there nice cities or regions to visit? When should we schedule Disneyland relative to Christmas? Should we spend Christmas there or avoid the resort because of crowds?
I really need your expert opinions as I won't have a lot of time to plan, especially when I will be alone with the kids for 3 months. Luckily my boss agreed to decrease my hours while DH will be gone to 21h a week so I have more flexibility. I am the planner in the family and DH won't be able to help much with a 72h/week schedule at work in S. Korea.
Thank you in advance!
