Around noon, we visited the water fire department pageant from Harumi 2-chome. About two weeks before the event, boats gathered on the Harumi Canal and practiced.

At the venue of Harumi 5-chome, with the aim of opening the rare ship to the public every year. This year, the fire boat "Miyakodori" was open to the public on the 15th. As usual, the Japan Coast Guard survey boat "Ocean", the Tokyo Port and Harbor Bureau dredging ship "Umiryu", the Tokyo University of Marine Science and Technology training boat "Umitaka Maru", and the minesweeper ship "Tsushima" are open to the public from the Marine Self-Defense Force.

In addition, on the other side of Harumi Wharf, you can see the completed Toyosu Market. The planned site of Harumi's athlete village is still being leveled, and construction seems to be from now on. With the opening of Route 2, the opening of Toyosu Ohashi and Tsukiji Ohashi will be completed, and I look forward to the future development of Harumi.

This year, the test drive of the water taxi was also made by advance reservation, but the application has been missed. It seems that there will be more and more attempts ahead of the Olympics, and I am looking forward to next year.
