Sumida River Waseda-Keio Regatta

[Tachibana] April 21, 2015 14:00

  Although it did not go to the Sumida River in Urara in spring, the annual Waseda-Keio Regatta was held as the cloudy sky and the rain was falling.

Cheers from both schools are also cheering by singing school songs and cheering songs.

As I thought last year, the person who holds the boat before the start is hard work. The back is Shinohashi.

The starting point is from the side of Hamacho Park.

It's finally the start of the second eight.

Statue of the therapy dog "Tyori" 

[kimitaku] April 20, 2015 14:00

If you look at Kabukiza to the left and walk along Harumi-dori St., you will go to the intersection of Mannen Bridge.

Ginza Park on the left of the intersection.

Looking at the left hand from the street, you can see a cute dog parent and child statue.

 

It's a famous dog Chirori Monument.

The owner speaks to the dog, strokes it, and when the dog looks at the owner,

"Oxytoxin": Hormones that feel safe in each other's bodies: 

Will increase.

Utilizing it, mental stability, improvement of dementia, and cerebral infarction.

A lot of therapy dogs are now active, such as encouraging recovery of sequelae. 

  

 Thylori, a abandoned dog with a right foot with a right foot, was rescued to the Therapy Dog Association from being killed at the Animal Protection Center and dedicated to the mental and physical care of patients and the elderly for 12 years before his death.

 "Therapy Dog,"

 This free affection has given people the courage to live and hope for recovering their condition.       

   

When crossing the intersection, look at the lovely "Tyori" and their children's statues.

I'll make you feel relieved.

 

 

New Famous Spots in Sakamotocho Park

[Satoken] April 7, 2015 18:00

When I was walking around Sakamotocho Park on a sunny day at the end of March, I saw a new building.

 

When I went into the park with wonders, there was a white glass-covered building on the small side of Sakamoto, and some of them were used for festivals.

 

The floats were on display. It is used by a nearby town council, and the size and decoration are different and compare.

 

It was interesting. I couldn't see it from the very close, so it was a great study.

 

You should definitely go to Sakamotocho Park to see it.

Cherry-blossom viewing (Echizenbori Park)

[Satoken] April 6, 2015 19:00

At this time, there are many articles about cherry blossoms.

 

I'm just looking for local stories recently, but on April 4 (Saturday), the annual cherry blossom viewing at Echizenbori Park was held.

 

The cherry blossoms were already in full bloom and began to fall, but it was held as scheduled with some weather.

 

Hosted by the surrounding town council, there are also tents for each town council that provide Yakisoba, Frankfurt, cotton candy, etc.

 

It was so busy that I could think where such people came out. There are many apartments in the surrounding area.

 

There are many people who have lived for a long time, and it is a corner where you can feel the connection with people. I'm looking forward to next year.
