Nippon Maru Kaiomaru at Harumi Wharf

[kimitaku] July 27, 2016 12:00

Take a walk at Toyoumi Wharf on a hot day in July.

Looking at Harumi Wharf on the opposite shore, a big sailing ship was found.

I was anchored against the background of Rainbow Bridge.

Compared to the pier observation deck, you can feel the size of the ship.

When I approached the hull toward Harumi Wharf. There is a golden emblem on the bow.

It was shining brightly in the morning sun.

It is a pity that Kaiomaru II (pictured in the center above) cannot be seen near the anchorage near Shin-Toyomi Bridge at Harumi Wharf.

Nippon Maru Kaiomaru is sometimes anchored at Harumi Pier. It's unusual for both to be anchored.
