Driving Directions:
Go to this address 41-902 OluOlu Street.
There will be a big gate on your right with a “security guard”.
Show them your AOK Pass or just write AOK on a peice of paper or just tell them you are with AOK. It’s pretty relaxed.
Next park in the middle of the big field. Leave your parking pass visable in case we need to move vehicles. Not that important.
Walk over to us you should see Evan’s big van. It’s towards the mountain from where you parked.
