Ocean11 0 Posted February 19, 2002 Share Posted February 19, 2002 I'd like to read a report about some of these places. Would anyone who's been care to put something together? One gets kind of desperate out of season... Link to post Share on other sites

Would anyone who's been care to put something together? One gets kind of desperate out of season... This is nothing definitive, but as a Tokyoite, I used to visit Ssaws way back when I was starting out. Anyway, it might be ok if you find yourself in Tokyo during the summer with nothing to do and wanna stretch your legs. But that's about it. Runs are pretty short (eg 20-30 seconds), and the artificial snow is nothing to write home about, but hey, think of it as a warm-up and it might work for you. Maybe riding fakie or something might make it more interesting. It's a couple stations past Disney on the Keiyo-line. Link to post Share on other sites
