> Where I am, the sun is up at 4:45am and down at 7pm in the summer. In the winter, the sun is up at 7am and down at 4:45pm.
Was in hokkaido early this month and this was a hellish pain in the arse, the sun was up at 6AM and down at 4:30PM. As far as I could tell, the japanese don't generally start out at 6AM (the hotels I went to had breakfast and check-out no earlier than 7 or even 8 and "rush hour" — where there was such a thing — was definitely after 8)
