Don, the store is nicknamed "Donki" just like the animal but with a long "o". Lots of stuff, don't go while jetlagged, as it can sometimes be overwhelming!
So Tokyo is October 26? For some reason, I had it as Nov 26, and that did not work for us. Hmmmm.

Hello,
We have tickets on hold arriving in Tokyo on Oct. 25 and want to be sure we wouldn't miss any planned or informal activities by arriving on Friday - our dates could be flexible. We would plan on attending the GTG on Saturday at the Gonpachi restaurant.
Look forward to seeing anyone attending the Boston GTG as well!
Thanks!

Craig,
Get there by subway from Citadines. If you don't have one of these download and print out for future reference.
http://www.tokyometro.jp/en/subwayma...outemap_en.pdf
A 5 minute walk away from Citadines is the M-10 Shinjuku Gyoenmae stop which you would enter and take train till the Kasumigaseki M-15 station(5 stops away) where you would transfer to the Hibiya line and get off at the Roppongi stop and exit there. The restaurant is a ten minute walk from Roppongi station. The whole subway process should take you about 31 minutes if you hit it correctly....a little longer if not.
You can leave with us from Citadines if you like or we can share taxis if in a rush.
You can plan your other Tokyo subway rides here:

Wow, that is a roundabout route via subway but it does get you there at reasonable cost. We would likely be back at the hotel at that time so it would be great if we could all go together. That will be our 3rd full day in Tokyo, so by then we will BW subway pros...
Thanks for the links.

Craig, I know it sounds complicated but not at all.

rhk, Ok,I will pay for all the taxis in Tokyo......yah right,forget about it. btw, I hope you are studying that subway map I left for Craig above.....that's not rain, that's me peeing from the balcony above, lol. I am really going to enjoy Japan this fall!
