We're going to Japan for 10 days (ok, it's really 9 with the travel day). We really wish we could travel longer, but this is what we can manage. So we'll mostly be sticking to Tokyo and Kyoto. It's our first trip to Japan, so everything will be new to us. We are a family of 4 with a 10 and 14 year old. We don't want to over-plan or exhaust ourselves and have time to explore, so any input would be appreciated. Also, we're all rather nerdy (video games, anime, tech), so any super cool shops, or small quirky stops along our route would be appreciated. We heard the Robot restaurant is closed and the Ghibli Museum seems impossible as well. I personally would love to visit an Onsen but suspect I would go on my own as my kids aren't comfortable with it, something small on our route in Kyoto? Thank you so much for your input and kind suggestions!
