In Ginza Sony Park

The tropical "cycad" flourishes, giving you a warm atmosphere.

Underground, a puppy robot "AIBO" with a body length of about 30 cm welcomes you.

When you move in response to "sitting" and "hands", or stroking your head, you will be pleased.

I don't know how much I understand human language.

It will evolve further and reward you for healing

Speaking of which, it's almost spring.

It's nice, isn't it?

The Tokyo Marathon, which delights your eyes with elaborate appearances and various costumes.

This year, I would like to pay attention to the performance of the roadside.

In terms of record

It is worth noting how much the effect of "heat absorber" on Chuo-dori is effective.

All the runners should do their best!

On January 3 (Thursday), I watched the last Hakone Ekiden in Heisei and participated in the "Sensha Bill Stamp & Town Name Quiz Rally" held by the Chuo-ku Tourist Information Center.

First of all, to collect information, I asked a woman guided in a kimono at the Nihonbashi Tourist Information Center where the athlete is currently running, and said, "I'm running around Sengakuji Temple and coming to Nihonbashi in more than 10 minutes." I decided to watch the game around here.

While waiting for the players, when I looked at the statues of Kirin and lions in Nihonbashi, I found that Kirin's feet were two fingers and the lion's feet were four fingers, and I felt like I had a big harvest.

At 13:22, the top player passed in front of you in an instant.

I couldn't see my face very quickly, and people who were trying to shoot with a smartphone said, "I couldn't shoot ..." .

Three minutes later, the second place player will come, but this will pass in an instant ...

The area around Nihonbashi is 1 km to the goal, and it is also a popular watching point.

Next, I thought that I had to think carefully about the watching points, and headed to "Sensha Bill Stamp & Town Name Quiz Rally".

This is held until January 14 (Monday), and if you collect 7 stamps in the city, you will receive a "participation prize", and if you answer all the stamps & quizzes correctly, you will receive a further "achievement prize" You.

※The number of participation awards and achievement awards is limited.

Like a Hakone Ekiden player, I think it's a good idea to run through Chuo-ku in an instant, but why not go around Chuo-ku while playing a suntaap rally with Jikkuri?

February 25 is generally calm and cloudy, and I think it's a good condition to run.

Near Kaminarimon at 9 am, early people in the ward are starting to stand along the road.

Even though the name of the Tokyo Marathon is given, the content is a festival.

At the 12km point, 20 leading groups, a little delay, a group of 30 people passed, and then a large number of situations.

At the Nihonbashi intersection after passing 25km, it will be a leading group of 10 people, and the winner will come out of this.

You're thinking of bargaining.

This time, I was reminded of what kind of feeling it is for those who run on Ginza Street in a straight line.

There are various supporters, and dogs in the pocket are also making a wan-wan voice against humans.

From the rooftop of G-SIX, I can't see the expression of the face, but the colorful appearance and interval of the runners were seen, and I enjoyed this sight as well.

For me, Nihonbashi is a sight with poor visibility through highways.

Goemon Ishikawa climbed to the mountain gate and shouted, "Is it a superb view?"

Hiroshige draws a view of Mount Fuji in the distance.

I was able to feel the good view.

At present, Nihonbashi couldn't feel the goodness of the past at all, and I was very sorry.

However, the removal of highways may be realized.

The old building reflected on the river surface

You can see a group of buildings without interruption.

I had my first dream of seeing a landscape with a view.

I want to see the lively scenery as soon as possible.

The Tokyo Marathon is a festival.

With the exception of only a few people, the majority seem to find significant significance in participating in this tournament.　

He asserts himself with his favorite costumes such as Spiderman and Chaplin.

I can't forget that day this time.

At around 12:20, in front of Takashimaya in Nihonbashi! Isn't a woman in kimono running through? ！！

Have you been running at a distance of 40 km?　Oh, yes!

I couldn't believe it, but I looked closely with this eye.

Soba dog, too
