Best experience during stayed in Japan  which I almost never did in Indonesia was looking at the weather forecast news .... Japanese people or perhaps people in the 4 seasons are accustomed to see the weather forecast ... At first I did not want to take up this habit.   
So, one time I was planning to go to tokyo to meet my close friend and his family who visited Japan. ....... At that day.... when I had to leave for Tokyo ... there was news about no 27th typhoons passed over Tokyo.....
