IMPORTANT REMINDERS / COMMENTS:

Thanks to all of your efforts in coordinating flights over the past few days.  Most of you are booked or well on your way.  Just a couple left - you know who you are.  If you still need to book it and you have questions, just ask.

 

Final payment for the trip is due December 4^th. - then we’ll focus on preparing for the fun stuff.

The new Google Calendar is located on the “Itinerary” Tab and is updated nearly daily with regards to planning.  Keep an eye on how things are coming together.

 

Unfortunately the timing of the baseball schedule did not work out, but, we have secured a lecture from the one and only “Master Tuna Rancher” while we are at Tsukiji Fish Market.  He is an old-time fisherman who concentrates his efforts on raising the dwindling blue fin tuna population.  He consulted with the Australian government in teaching them the ropes of ranchin’.  This man is very highly regarded within the fishing industry and it’s a real treat to have him work with us.

 

In case you didn’t see it earlier, the East/West sumo tournament is also in the works.  The dates and location are perfect for the trip.  There are a few sumo details on the Visits Tab.  Details will appear on the calendar soon.
