　I went to Yagenbori Real Estate "Nen no Toshiichi".

The size of the city (Ichi) was like surrounding Fudoson all the time, and there were many local Western-style wholesalers and shoe wholesalers.

　High-grade umbrellas were also on sale.　While walking, I input the products and prices of the shop.　

But the quality is absolutely good and the price is surprisingly cheap (if you want to buy it later, it's sold out), so if you like it, I think it's good to buy it immediately.

Chindonya is also a lively and fun city with sound and color.　There were also shops such as takoyaki.

Today, I bought my own shoes, fur collar wraps, jackets for grandchildren, high-grade gentlemen's belts, etc. for gifts to my wife.

The price is about one-third of the market price, and it is the price you really serve.

Oops, you can get a ticket for Fukubiki every 1,000 yen purchase.　Here are your last good luck for the year.

＊On the last day of the 29th, the closing time varies depending on the store.　

I think the store that closes late at around 19 o'clock, but please go out early while it is very bright.

　Nihonbashi Takashimaya hears the sound of jingle bells.

 This building has been designated as an Important Cultural Property for the first time as a department store in 2009.

　I love walking around Nihonbashi because it has an atmosphere that reminds me of Paris somewhere. In the past, I have taken tourists from France to the store.

I came with my sister and wife today.

As a Christmas event, the slogan "Time to laugh together is the best gift."

Small items related to the French writer San Tegjuperi's "Prince of the Star" that everyone longed for were sold.

I also bought a clear holder with a cute prince's illustration.

　Currently, "Christmas X Little Prince stamp rally" is being held in the store until December 25th.

　Why don't parents and children, grandpa and grandma take their grandchildren and enjoy shopping and stamp rally?

Once again, I was concerned about reading the prince of the stars.　I also learned this time that Santegjuperi's life is full of turbulence.

Please enjoy a good Christmas!

　This is the entrance to the new building of Nihonbashi Mitsukoshi. A large fir tree is decorated beautifully.

The kimono of a young lady on the way is also wonderful.

In Mitsukoshi, I saw it in Nihonbashi and Ginza windows.

JENKA makes you smile. I'll see a catch phrase that says.

The statue of the heavenly woman (magokoro) drawn in the window is also jumping vigorously.

In front of this window, there is a foot that jumps like "Kenken Poi", so it is written.

The song by Kyu Sakamoto, who took the world by storm in the 1960s.

Let's Kiss, it's fun to enjoy while humming the beaking like Let's kiss, a bird.

　Immediately after entering the main building, there was a stage for taking a commemorative photo of JENKA, and it seemed fun for parents and children.

　The main building is designated as "Historic buildings Selected by Tokyo Metropolitan Government".

　On December 17, 2015 (Thursday), there was a lunchtime mini-lecture & mini-concert at St. Luke's Health Nabis Pot.

Every year, students from the choir and sign language club of St. Luke's International University, in Suetsune, performed wonderful songs.

This year, a male Santa Claus also appeared and excited the venue. Visitors at the venue also sang "Akahana no Reindeer" together.

A lovely clear voice, as if it were coming down from heaven with the stars.

I was very happy.

  Sign language people are also good, and Santa carries a bag.

"From you, turn your hand toward yourself at the time of Mary Christmas, and turn your hand toward other people at the time of Mary Christmas."

Yes, Santa Clause' s coming to town.  Wishing you Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

　By the way, at the hospital, you can cure your physical illness with medical care, but here St. Luke's Health Nabis Pot teaches you precautionary prevention and necessary knowledge.

Today's mini-lecture was Mr. Kazuo Shiraki, a doctor of Rukabi Volunteer, "To care for the liver."

I learned a lot about the silver making of drinking aid.　

　Next time, from 12:30 to 13:20 on January 21, 2016 (Thursday).

The mini health course is "What is generic?"　What is the medicine notebook for?" That's right.

It seems that a wonderful song will be performed at the mini-concert afterwards.

I'm looking forward to participating in both.

　The location is the "Puruka Room" on the first floor of Building 2, St. Luke's College of Nursing, 3-8-5 Tsukiji.

　We spoke with Yuichi Kawabe of Asuka Booksellers in front of Higashi-Nihonbashi Station on the Toei Asakusa Line, who is a director of the Yagenbori Shopping Association.

The Yagenbori Talk Meeting is held at 14:00 on the 28th of every month, commemorating the 400th on October 28th.

 And, "Harisen", which hits the desk used to switch stories in talks, seems to be fired and memorialized at Yagenbori Fudoin on December 30 every year.

When I visited the Yagenbori Talk Meeting in Marugoto Museum 2015 on November 1, Higashinihombashi was at the Oki Tang Karashi store near Ryogokubashi, "Ryogoku Oki's Seven Color Tang Garashi" at the Oki Tang Karashi store near Ryogokubashi.

　Nowadays, it is common to call it "Shichimi pepper" nationwide, but it is common to call it "Shichimi pepper".

It is said that in 1625, "Yagenbori" Nakajima Shoten devised Shichimi pepper in Yagenbori.

At first, it was called "Nanairo Tongarashi", and Yagenbori also pronounced "Yakenbori", and the column "Yagenbori is the birthplace of Shichimi peppers!" It is described in this article.

And "Seven-colored pepper" was presented to the general of the time, Tokugawa Iemitsu in 1625, and he was very pleased.

In Yagenbori, chili peppers are called seven colors instead of seven tastes. Just as the “Non-no-ichi” will be held from December 27 to 29, so please enjoy it together with shopping.

　Please also see the monuments of "the birthplace of the talk" and "the year of payment".

　Ginza Cleston Hotel is a quiet and calm hotel located in St. Luke's Garden Tower.

On the 32nd floor, there are Japanese restaurants such as "Shabu Zen" and "Hanayama", as well as a Western-style restaurant Plashante.

On Sunday afternoon, we went out for lunch buffet at Restaurant Plashanti.

The restaurant in the atrium on the 32nd floor is decorated with Christmas decorations and light jazz slowly flows.

 First of all, the first dish. It's a little light. Dry curry, sweet sea bream, pitzer, salad, etc.

Next, the second dish. Cutlets, boiled chicken tomatoes, pasta, etc.

　It was not shown in the picture, but seafood curry was also delicious. There were other Japanese soba, but this time there was a pass.

Next, you can enjoy 4 kinds of desserts, including matcha babaroa. Coffee is also good!

This is 1,200 yen including consumption tax. (As of December 13, 2015)

　Now, in the popular word, it's "surprise pong".

Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays are open, so you can enjoy a relaxing meal. Please drop in for a walk around Akashicho. For more information, call: http://www.crestonhotel.jp/ginza/restaurant/ (http://www.crestonhotel.jp/index.html) 03-5550-5777.
