I might go (before an eating contest). Although every time I go to a Japan Town event, I never recognize the people who say they are going (on this forum anyway).
I could go for some dumplings from Kumako and some shaved ice (?) from that one place (name escapes me now).

I notice on the website Maid Cafe is going to be there?
at least it wasnt like the year previous when it was over 90 degree plus, and most of the maids were bring troopers in the hot weather.

for all the maid's sake I hope the weather will be pleasant and nice for all the hardworking volunteers. :)

walking around and checking stuff out should be free... parking might be limited and/or cert lots might have to pay $5 or something, but there should be plenty of free street parking.

musical events and demos, and panels, and video rooms are free.

food, drinks, maid cafe stuffs, kids carnival games are gonna cost $$$ and stuff.

I arrived between 3-4pm and saw RyuHayabusa, Moogleborg, Shortpachoo, and Stormfalcon while I was there. I didn't take any pictures though.
