Boat Transportation Guide Course

[CAM] August 31, 2015 18:00

The classroom course of the boating guide course was held on Friday, August 28 and the on-the-job course was held on August 30 (Sun).

 

First of all, it's a class.

 On the 30th, when the actual edition was held, it was a bit of light rain, but it was beneficial for cruises on the Nihonbashi River, Sumida River and Kanda River.

 

 First of all, it's a good idea.

 In the light rain, we left Nihonbashi dock at Edokkomaru.

 Enter the Sumida River and see Kiyosu Bridge from the water. When viewed from the water, the Tokyo Tree is in the middle of the bridge.

 It's Shinohashi seen from the water.

 When you enter the Kanda River, the first thing you can see is Yanagibashi.

 Kanda River also has interesting bridges and riversides, but it is omitted because it is outside Chuo-ku (laughs). Once again in Chuo-ku of Nihonbashi River.

You can see the Joban Bridge under construction. You can see the building of the Bank of Japan on your left.

 And I returned to Nihonbashi again.

 It was less than 2 hours, but it was a useful tour.

I finally came back to Tsukuda on foot, thinking that it was getting cooler and I had to tighten my feelings a little.

"Tetsuko's Room" started broadcasting in 1976. This exhibition commemorates 10,000 times () in the 40th year () of the program.

At the venue, the names and photographs of Showa and Heisei actors, singers, talents, and athletes who appeared in the "Tetsuko's Room" lined up, and many people were watching old days.

By the way, this picture (pictured) is made of a very small photo of Tetsuko Kuroyanagi (a spot where you can take photos)

"Tetsuko's Room" was certified by Guinness in 2011 as a record of the number of broadcasts of programs by the same moderator.

In the 8th floor hall of the venue, Nihonbashi Takashimaya, costumes and accessories actually used in the program were exhibited, and studio sets and backstage were reproduced.

The venue was large, and there was also a room where you could sit and watch the images of old performers.

Also, when the visitors stood in front of the mirror, there was also a photo shoot spot where Kuroyanagi's trademark "Onion Hair" was on his head and wearing costumes worn by Kuroyanagi, so I enjoyed it.
