The moon viewing of the moon is not visible on the bridge

[Ryokichi] October 28, 2014 16:00

The plating days are getting shorter these days. I want to enjoy the longer night in the coming season.

The other day, October 8 was a total lunar eclipse, so I took a walk in Chuo-ku to see the moon.

That evening, the weather was fine and the weather was fine, so it was astronomical observation in a favorable environment.

Meanwhile, it was Shinohashi that I chose to see the moment when the moon was hidden in the total lunar eclipse.

IMG_7590.jpg

This street, along the Sumida River is the best for viewing the moon. In Tokyo, the moon is not often seen due to the lighting of buildings, but there is no problem along the river. By the way, there were many people with similar ideas, and the bridge was full of people.

While watching the gradually lacking moon, I took a draft beer from a familiar shop in the neighborhood and enjoyed the lingering sound quietly on the bridge.(I returned the jok later.)

IMG_7615.jpg

The important point is that the moon gets darker, so my lack of preparation was a bad result, but in the second photo, it is just before it gets dark, so the atmosphere may be somehow transmitted .

After that, I was watching the moon, or seeing the moon disappear.

[Kenken] October 28, 2014 09:00

On Sunday, October 26, "Chuo-ku Health and Welfare Festival 2014" was held at Akatsuki Park, the surrounding Chuo-ku Public Health Center, Time Dome Akashi, etc.

Actually, my wife was taking a dog from my home, so I went to see it when it was cool (laughs).

Many groups participated in various elaborate ways, and on the outdoor stage in the park, various performances were shown, and I think it was quite exciting.

Kyosei Suishinin.JPGfukushi matsuri.JPGHowever, I myself get rid of it as soon as possible and walk around a little.

What is particularly noticeable here is that there are many "birthplaces" of various schools.

At that time, more Christianity-based schools were established in Tsukiji Foreign Settlements by foreigners.

For example, on the premises of St. Luke's College of Nursing next to Akatsuki Park, there are monuments of Rikkyo Gakuin and Women's Academy's Birthplace.

Rikkyo Gakuin 2.jpgJoshigakuin.JPGThe birthplace of Keio Gijuku is also around here.

Keio Hassho.JPGIn addition, there are still famous and prestigious schools that originated in this area, such as Aoyama Gakuin and Meiji Gakuin.

Why don't you visit the map with one hand?
