Takayama is a bit of an awkward location. Does my 9th-11th idea seam feasible? Should I scrap it and make use of time better elsewhere. We debated Kaga and Hakone as well into the whole mix. Takayama would give us that ryokan experience I suppose. What do we think? I hope I left enough days for Tokyo!
