masaegu,
THANK YOU so much for making that second phone call.
I THINK what I am (
your are) getting out of the OMYC is the Japanese verion of an indirect "NO!". Apparently the government place just does not want to be bothered with it. Luggage is a pain in the butt. So if they make it very difficult and unclear..... you will simply just go away. Then they did not have to say a direct "no".
I talked to KuroNeko directly once again, and they again said that their driver does NOT deliver to the rooms there at the OMYC at all. They talked to the driver that does that
specific route. They said that they deliver exactly as they said originally in their first answer to me... to the office in the Accomodations Building D.
So this situation is all unfortunately a total "crap shoot". Ship the bags and HOPE that the OMYC
DO hang on to them, as KuroNeko insists that they do. Or limit ourselves to one 50 pound checked bag, and than have to schlep the heavy large bags thru the stations and on the trains to be safe.
We can't take a chance that the main bags will not be there on the day we need them. There are "professional reasons" for needing stuff which will be in them. It
cannot go wrong. And we are on a tight time window,..........so no time to "fix" things if the bags are not there.
So it looks like we are going to have a "
fun day" on the trains after being on the plane for 13 1/2 hours
.
Thank you SO MUCH for trying.
best,
...................john
