ADDITIONAL INFO:
If you come late, it will be about a 25-min walk to our location at the
dirty angle between the Shinjuku train line bridge and the Kasaibashi
Bridge but much closer to the Shinjuku train line bridge. Call the
organizer (James -090-1847-5075) if there are any problems finding us.
RAIN:
In the event of light or medium rain this event will NOT be cancelled.
Please bring rain gear and we will take shelter (under a bridge) until
any downpours let up. In the event of heavy rain/strong winds (e.g.,
typhoon conditions) or lightning then the event will be cancelled (and
usually moved to a different day).
Let’s have fun enjoying our local nature while making it better at the
same time.
