Hello, this is Tsukishima's turtle "Pon-chan".

 A big turtle was taking a walk around 6 o'clock on a hot summer evening.

 

 When I asked the master, the name was "Pon-chan" of a turtle.

 I'm just taking a walk on Tsukishima 3-chome toward Nishinaka Shopping Street.

 I was walking around the sidewalk while looking at the front and back of the left foot alternately and energetically.

 

 ・・・When you ask your age,

 He was 17 years old.

 The turtle, which was small enough to put on her palm, has grown little by little every year, and now it is so much more. ・・・・

・・Just like my child...

 

The adults passing by

"Oh,"

"Why a turtle on Tsukishima ..."

 The children go with "Pon-chan".

  

  My husband, 

 "Pon-chan, everyone,"

 "Yes, that's okay..."

 

 The children were put on "Pon-chan" and

Ohashagi.

 

 I try to capture the figure of a turtle walking on my mobile phone, but walking is faster than thinking.

At the end of the day, I couldn't get the turtle's smile.

 

 

  After a while, "Pon-chan"

 

 

 I was watched by the gentle gaze of everyone in Shimomachi Tsukishima, turned around the alley and headed home. 

  “Pon,” you will always be fine.
