4:00 a.m. on Dec.14th : Watching Geminds (Only for attendants on 13th who "would like to" join. Will be canceled if it's rainy or cloudy)

Hmmm.. 4 a.m.?? I am not an earlybird. (Hayaokidori means earlybird though...) (^^;;

Actually joined a star watching held in the middle of this Nov. 2012. Mr.Watanabe patiently explained this and that stars to us. I enjoyed the time after a long interval. It's already cold enough here, so please have enough clothes with you.
