As a third-generation British Columbian with fir and cedar in my veins, I can appreciate the work, and I'll be sure to see it, Oct6, on the first day of another 2-month stay in what I like to call my adopted land, but I'll leave that phrase to those of you who read JT who know more.

Cheers from Victoria

It's in Koto-ku, a few minutes' walk from Shin-Kiba station. Way out in the east of Tokyo.

Way out in the east of Tokyo.

Some few minutes from Tokyo Station, by train. Not really way out...

@lucabrasi and @ebisen, many thanks, I'll put it on my list of things when I hit Tokyo at the beginning and end of my two months in the country, starting in a mere five weeks. Can't wait.
