I listed these in order of what I think we should do first. Is this good or should we re-order it? It's my first Japan trip and I'm having trouble deciding if these activities will fill a full day. My wife and I decided this will be more of a relaxing/foodie trip so we're not planning to get up super early to do the activities. Any feedback would be appreciated.
