Misawa Travel Forum

This location seems to come highly recommended; I just wanted to make sure of its location to Misawa. It is about 3 hours by train to there depending upon departure time? That is what I have been told, just wondering. Thank you for your time!

Hey- I am going to be visiting Japan next year with my friend and want to visit Misawa; can anyone suggest fun things to do/see in Misawa?

This may seem a weird question, but my friend really wants to experience hot springs and I've heard there are many in Aomori- are there any in Misawa or close by? Any suggestions are greatly appreciated, thank you!

How do you get here from misawa and how long does it take?

Does anyone have a copy of USARJ Pamphlet 190-10 (Driving in Japan) that they can mail to me. Will be glad to pay for postage and such. Will be traveling to Japan in late July and wanting to rent a van from MWR, and understand that I need a 4EJ drivers license and must take a written test to obtain one. Just wanted to refresh myself in advance with the driving rules.
Thanks.

I am also looking for any Prince Hall Masons that is stationed in Misawa and would like to know of any Masonic events that may be taking place.

I am traveling in January and would like to know the local customs, do's and don't's. If anyone can help me I thank you in advance.

I would like to find some members on base and in town to exchange letters and pictures.

I'm living in Florida, currently, but will be flying out of ATL to travel to Misawa in October/November. I've read that the "best" way to get there is a flight into Narita, a bus to Haneda, and then a flight from Haneda into Misawa. Is this truly the best way to get there? I don't want a tedious, tiring trip.

Thanks in advance!
