Itinerary Advice

Hi all,
I'm travelling to Japan with a friend at the end of December-January and would like some advice on my itinerary.
Day 1 - Arrive around 5pm at Narita Airport. Travel to Kyoto (about 4 hours?)
Day 2 - Day trip to Hiroshima
Day 3 - Kyoto (New Years eve)
Day 4 - Kyoto (New Years)
Day 5 - Travel to Hakone and stay overnight at a ryokan
Day 6 - Travel to Tokyo
Day 7 - Tokyo
Day 8 - Tokyo
Day 9 - Tokyo
Day 10 - Depart for home from Narita Airport (around 9 am)
So my questions are..
1. Is my itinerary reasonable? Anything I should change?
2. 7 day JR Pass - When's a good time to activate it? I was thinking the first day? Or am I better off activating somewhere else? Or is it better to get a regular fare on Day 1 and maybe visit Hiroshima on day 3 (activate the JR Pass here), however it'll be new years even so I was worried it'll be busy on the trains?
Thanks all in advance.

Looks quite good if you'd like to see "modern Japan" a bit more than "historical Japan".
2. 7 day JR Pass - When's a good time to activate it? Day 1 when you depart at NRT:)
