TOKYO BAY CRUISE VI A Half-Fast Adventure

We’re approaching that time of year when we load up on food & drink, pile aboard a beautiful wood-and-brass boat and take a three-hour tour of Tokyo Bay. This is our sixth such cruise, and I need all Half=Fasters to help me fill the boat, as I have committed to the full rental price. So please sign up soon to ease my trouble mind. Invite your friends! This is the best party you will go to this year. Details below, and a printable version is attached.



On the evening of June 8th we will once again board the elegant Marco Polo for a three-hour adventure on Tokyo Bay. Live music! Dance performance! It’s a potluck, so in addition to putting up your share of the boat rental fee, please bring along a small dish to share and plenty of whatever you wish to drink. Adults: ¥8000. Kids 11 and under: ¥4000. Under 2: free.

SIGN UP NOW! I’m taking reservations now, so make sure you have a spot by emailing hfpadrone@PROTECTED hfpadrone@PROTECTED or calling 090-5813-6721. Please understand that by signing up you agree to pay, even if it rains (we’ll have fun anyway), if you get sick, or if you just, literally, miss the boat. I will have to pay for no-shows. Space is limited! You can pay at the pier, but advance payments are preferred.

WHERE AND WHEN June 8th, 6:00p.m. at Asashio Canal Pier, just across Harumi-dori from Triton Square. Directions: Come up exit A3b at Kachidoki Station (E17) on the Oedo Line and make an immediate U-turn. That big street just ahead is Harumi-Dori. Go right (the opposite direction of Kachidoki Bridge) and walk about 5 minutes to a smaller bridge. We gather at a small park on the right across that bridge. Please check in there before going to the pier. You can enter “Asashio Canal Pier” on your iPhone map, but the pier has been moved and it may show two locations. We’ll figure it out. Please get there by 6:00. We’ll be back by 10:00.
