My husband is German and I think he gets 6 months tourist visa. We only plan on a year in Japan, and since we won't work there I hope it will be possible to renew our tourist visas from there. Hope I'm not too naive about it?

Pre 9/11 I think renewing tourist visas was relatively easy. Now I would say that it is more difficult.

Day-care is a borrowed word from English, so a day-care center would be デイケア・センター but there are also Japanese words like 保育園 and 保育所.
