A visit to Odaiba Oedo Onsen Monogatari (www.ooedoonsen.jp/) formed part of the programme for the Centenary celebrations in 2005, and we made a repeat visit as part of ‘Odaiba Day’ last year. This year, the onsen visit will begin at 1.30 p.m. Oedo Onsen Monogatari houses a selection of different pools with various mineral compositions, as well as an outdoor pool. There are separate areas for ladies and gentlemen, and an amusing Edo-style theme restaurant area inside the complex adds to the fun. The Onsen visit will be followed by a catered barbecue in nearby Kaihin Park, which overlooks Rainbow Bridge. This part of the programme will begin at around 4.00 p.m. Details will be sent to those who apply to attend.
The charges, which are payable on the day, are ¥2,800 for admission to Oedo Onsen Monogatari, and ¥4,000 for the barbecue (covers both food and drinks). Please note that no-shows/late cancellers will be billed for any costs incurred on their behalf by the Society.
Members are welcome to invite guests. If you would like to attend, please contact Tim Minton (t.minton[at]camford[dot]org) by Monday, September 8th, making it clear whether you wish to attend both parts of the programme or only one.
