General questions:
I am seeing mixed information and from my tally it might be close. I am concerned we might have issues with the exchange pass. Will it be worth it to get a JR pass? Would we be able to do a 7day pass for the back half of our trip? I am not sure if the local trains/buses around Yokosuka are on the JR pass. Also, can we elect which 7 days we'd like to use the pass or is it for 7 consecutive days?
Thanks in advance!
