OGATA'S "NEW YORK TOUR" GUIDE!
This is my attempt at translating Megumi Ogata's MO Bay site. Remember, I don't know much Japanese, if you'd like to help email me ^_^



"Either with few or many people, it'll still be fun!"
Because I think this way, this time for the sake of making the trip as cheap as possible, most of the events are optional. The principle idea of the tour, is to see me perform live.
New York is original, and when I walked around, I thought that atmosphere was fun and the best. The security was good, being alone and seeing poor people while walking around was heart breaking. It was feasible for me to be a guide for some of the optional tours. It's jam packed!
While consulting with your wallet and your heart, look at the various selections. It's good to walk around alone, or go with your friends, and of course, go and have fun together with me. It's the point of every tour to have fun, and because I write postcards, I can use them as reference later.
Until then, Have a nice time! (^o^)/~

Option 1 - Dinner and Night View Tour

Of course the view from Empire State building is pretty! Every time you must dress up a little (It's necessary to respect this rule. It's ok if girls wear a one-piece dress and boys wear a jacket! Jeans are improper.). After a fun dinner, let's soak up a romantic night view. With me of course, dress up! (it's not important, haha)


Option 2 - Woodberry Common - Outlet Shopping

Very famous outlet street. Cheap! Pretty! No need to hurry (haha). In the New York suburb, the atmosphere is also good, if the weather is good, you get a nice feeling for shopping. Seriously cheap. Travelling by bus takes 1 hour each way, but eventually about 30 minutes into the trip (Though it depends on the number of participants) the guide, Megumi, will talking about the plan, so you won't be bored. So much shopping, you'll be dazed, so it's oke if you sleep (haha).


Option 3 - Musical

Speaking of New York, Broadway! Together with me, we'll go see a musical. Whichever musical program we'll go see, that day will be fun! You don't have to dress up (refer to option 1) while drunk on the story, in the intermission, wine and Megumi will toast and get more drunk. What to do? (of course, soft drinks will be sold)


Option 4 - Harlem Gospel Tour

The Harlem area is a bit dangerious, but Sunday morning will be ok. Why don't we listen to Monohon's gospel? African-Americans go to church alot, after refreshing your spirit with genuine gospel. Your hands and feet will naturally move (seriously)! While tremoring together, and while stamping your feet on the floor, the music is fun! You will also travel by bus, you'll have a different guide (refer to option 2, haha).


Option 5 - Sightseeing in the city tour

Only, your charming guide is giving this optional tour (haha). After returning from gospel, perfect. New York appears like scenery, I think it'll be fun. This time, your guide has to rehearse (haha).


Ogata Megumi Live in New York

This is the event the tour is from the start. In a local but famous soul club, while eating soul food, acoustic mini live concert will be fun. Here, rough style is ok. This is the conclusion of New York, I hope you have fun!


Because things like meals are basically not supported (except at the live show) I think people are worried but it's ok! There are lots of good stores with delicious food around the hotel, starting with McDonald's thre are also lots of fast food places, there are also hot dog carts, and of course food places in the hotel. Because of the boom in Japanese food, there are lots of Japanese restaurants, but there aren't Japanese meals, but it is ok.
Together with me, while becoming New Yorkers (haha), power floods the city, I hope you have fun!

JTB's advice on the optional tours


Option 1
Restaurant takes place at a casual Italian restaurant. You don't have to wear uniforms. Females can wear things like one-piece dress, males can wear things like cotton pants, wearing a jacket would be best. Fun dinner and having fun in Manhattan's night life.


Option 2
About 220 shops in this outlet mall are waiting for you. Lunch isn't provided, but you can go to your favorite cafes and restaurants.


Option 3
There is a bar in the musical theater. You can buy drinks during the intermissions. A drink fee isn't included in the tour price, but you can buy them individually.


Option 4
You can experience gospel in Harlem's church. Because you are in a church, please avoid wearing things like shorts or clothes that show lots of skin and please be quiet when you're inside the church.


Option 5
America's symbol is the Statue of Liberty. Things like the Rockerfeller Center, and Greenwich Village are some famous places in New York that we're going to see. We are not going inside the Statue of Liberty.
