Thanks so much for this information on your stops in Japan. They all sound wonderful. I've heard great things on Cruise Critic about Yosuke. Also, I believe I know the LCT poster of whom you speak. I'll contact him regarding the Cherry Blossom Festival in Hirosaki unless he posts here first. Again, many thanks for sharing your experiences.
