Ready to GO!

This will be our fourth trip to Japan. This time we are taking our ten year old grand-daughter Abby on her first trip to Tokyo.
We have all spent many months working on a 'kid friendly' itinerary and we think we will have enough of a balance between what Abby wants to do and what we would like her to do!
For starters, we have rented an apartment in Shinagawa, just a stone's throw from the station. As with most Tokyo lodgings, it looks extremely small! But it has two beds, a bathroom, small kitchen and a washing machine. To top it off there is a 7 Eleven under the building, so all will be fine.
Japanese Rail (JR) has a 3 day rail ticket for the Kanto Region around Tokyo, so we'll grab one of those each when we arrive in Narita to give us the opportunity to see some of central Honshu. The rest of the time we plan to spend in Tokyo to take in Tokyo Disney Sea, Kidzania and a few other kid friendly attractions.
Abby is a keen (read fanitical) gymanist, so expect to see her doing handstands all over Tokyo and central Honshu!
