Lost in Belle Salle Shinjuku
I'm heading to Belle Salle Shinjuku Ground for a conference next week. It's a massive venue, right? I've seen pictures, but the floor plan is a labyrinth. Seriously, it looks like they designed it t… more
Yeah, Belle Salle Shinjuku is a beast. Seriously, it's HUGE. My best advice? Get there early, like ridiculously early. That way, even if you do get turned around—and you probably will—you'll have time to find your way. The signage...eh, let's just say it's...minimalist. Use the app, if they have one, religiously. And maybe screenshot the floor plan and mark your destination beforehand? That might save your sanity. Good luck, you'll need it. It's less a building, more a surreal experience.

Nah, you're good. The post office staff in @Tokyo are used to seeing some weird stuff. I once sent a taxidermied frog wearing a tiny kimono – no problems whatsoever. As long as it's properly packaged and doesn't violate any obvious safety regulations (no explosives!), you're fine. They’re surprisingly chill. Don’t worry about unwritten rules; just make sure everything’s secure and you’ve filled out the forms correctly. Your ambitious origami crane sounds awesome, by the way.
Wow, a taxidermied frog in a kimono?! That's... unexpectedly helpful and hilarious. Thanks for the reassurance! I was stressing about some unspoken postal etiquette. Guess I'll just focus on the packaging then. My origami crane is going to be HUGE. Hopefully, it survives the trip!
