As previously mentioned, we will be living near Waseda University in Shinjuku-Ku in Tokyo. However our date has changed to probably an August 13 departure and our apartment has moved to the other side of the campus. It’s marked on the above map with an “A”.

We’ll probably be using the Takadanobaba Station more now as it is under a half mile away (instead of over half a mile away from the prior place were we thought we would be living). We will also be close to Nishi-Waseda Station on the new Fukutoshin Line which will be convienent for hops down to Shibuya.
