　According to de Niro's information, Mr. Kno, Mr. Mura, Mr. Nno, etc. also participated in the off party the other day.

　You can feel the motivation of the Chuo-ku Tourism Association from the new fiscal year.

　I'm a Jijii correspondent, but I tried to suppress my usual modest attitude further, be careful not to disturb young people, and I wanted to participate ...

　However, on that day, we showed foreign troops to Tsukiji Market, so unfortunately we were absent.

　By the way, according to Drunk's information (by the Wild Bird Society of Japan), "It was a gathering of about 20 people, of which 7 were from Kansai." If so, the percentage of Kansai among correspondents was quite high.

　Jijii also became a second-year correspondent, retired quietly, and I was thinking of returning to Kansai again, but this year again, I decided to do my best in Chuo-ku, Tokyo. Was.

　In addition, it was the first time that I used it while having a license of an interpreter guide, but I think that the Olympics are near, and that I would like to whip old bones and focus on this again.

  On April 14, I was fancy with cherry blossoms at night at "Ginza Sakura-dori St." at Ginza 1-chome.

On the way, we visited a shop that participated in Tokyo Art Antiques 2016, and also saw treasured items.

Then, with a little bambi, three refreshments, fill the stomach with the recommended "Untan Gratin" of the store,

It's a cherry blossom viewing at night.

A bird in Tokyo, a sea gull that has become a route name.

Did you know everyone from migratory bird?

I lived here in Chuo-ku for more than 15 years, but I only learned about this fact a few months ago.

I'm always flying, because I'm always running, this is the train

If I thought I was always there, I was wrong. 。 。

It was the same winter bird as the swan that came to Japan to pass the winter.

Soon we’re going to build a family in Siberia.

Pay attention to your face...

It's been so black recently. Did you get sunburned with ultraviolet rays?

No, it changed from winter feathers to summer feathers.

Finally, the countdown to Siberia begins.

Such squirrels,

It can be found not only on Harumi Wharf, but also on the Hamarikyu water bus departure point, Kachidokibashi near the mouth of the Sumida River, and on the Sumida River terrace near Chuo-ohashi Bridge.

This is also a charm because Chuo-ku faces Tokyo Bay.

When I was walking along a narrow road near the police box in 6-chome to try tea at Tsukiji, suddenly I found a mysterious apartment? !

As walking through narrow street somewhere around Tsukiji 6-chome, all the sudden, very strange looking appartment appeared!

I've seen it somewhere... maybe Tsukiji Honganji's pakli?

I thought, the semi-cylindrical roof of Tsukiji Honganji was just showing up from behind the apartment.

I was surprised, so one piece.

Although it looked very familiar, pretty much of partial mock-up of Tsukiji Hongwanji Temple. The mystery was easily solved.  The appartment itself was built on the other side of the temple and the arch type roof of the temple just happened to show up. Took a snap shot since it was quite an encounter.

And I went to the destination "Tsukiji Chabo", but it was closed in the 45th year of business! Why? I want it to be a lie.

Headed to "Tsukiji Sabo", a local cafe, but eventually, had to find and admit a sad news on the door. The cafe closed down!  This cafe has been serving locals since 1972 and god help us why now?

The coffee jelly here was great. The price was also excellent at 200 yen, and on Saturday it was a discount of 100 yen, half price! !

One of the best choices of this cafe was "coffee jelly with vanila ice cream on top" which only costed JPY200 and its high quality valued for money. On Saturdays, this masterpiece used to be discounted 50% and was served for JPY100.  Assume that this tragedy shocked all the local sweet tooth.

I was a little disappointed when I lost the fine enjoyment of the weekend, but I recovered and went out to the main street, worshiped Tsukiji Honganji in front and headed to the next destination.　But I still want it to be a dream.

Who cannot be upset when one has lost one's weekend pleasure. Just unbelievable. Perhaps nothing sweet can last forever, poor me and my coffee jelly・・・ 

Walked to front side of Tsukiji Hogwanji Temple and took a good look to cheer oneself up and headed to the next destination.
