Boat Guide Training (Tokyo Bay Coast)

[CAM] 16:00 on November 5, 2015

 On October 25 (Sun), there was a boat transportation guide Tokyo Bay shore training, and I participated. I'll record a little here.

 It is a condominium in Toyosu, but it is relatively low, probably before tower apartments appeared one after another. But the view is great, isn’t it?

At the Manman Festival, Mr. Burabra Centa?

[De Niro] 08:00 on November 5, 2015

Course_Map_Now_m.jpg

 November 7 is the last day of the event called "Oedo Tokyo Manman Festival", and has served as a guide to guide you from Nihonbashi to Kanda.

 

 Nishihira Tateyama, who worked on the course design, was born in Kanda, and grew up in Kanda since his grandparents. Last month, I participated in a pre-training tour that was used as location hunting by Mr. Tateyama. While looking at the old map, taking into account the situation before and after Ieyasu entered Edo, the very high-level “incandescent classroom” was shaken by the spirit of correspondents and was impressed.

 

If you click the map, it will be magnified in another window
Course_Map_OLD_-m.jpg

 I'm not an Edo kid of Chakichaki, but was born in Hokkaido that is cold and shattered. Balibari Yubari! I am Dosanko, who grew up nearby. Can I, as a dormitory, guide you in the middle of Tokyo, the capital? I thought myself, but there was a lot of labor shortage, what a white arrow hit as one of the new guide. I haven't hidden it in the past, but I haven't experienced a guide in Nihonbashi.

This is the debut game!

 

 

 I don't think it's possible to give a wonderful guide like Mr. Tateyama, a literally Edo kid, but I'd like to show you the unique and valuable local story of native secrets living in the area, which is a major tourist information nationwide (History of Ieyasu Tokugawa)・ Cultural content).  

 

 After all, I passed the "Chuo-ku Tourism Test" with excellent results (laughs), so the classic uchiku is stocked in the brain database.

 However, including the points held in the Monoshiri Encyclopedia, it is not "I can guide you because I know".

 

 On the other hand, if you can tell the customer even half of what you know in production, it will be better.

 In addition, there are many more detailed customers who participate in the recent town walk tour. It is quite tricky to treat such a strong person with knowledge of the tsukeyaki blade (>_<).

 

 I was inexperienced in terms of experience and skills, and I worked hard to make it a tour with high customer satisfaction with the thoughtful idea of hospitality.

 

 That's why I'm an expert at the opening. We have prepared a handmade “Tamate Box”.

 

TamateBOX_01.jpg

 The meeting place and departure are from Otohime Square in Nihonbashi. After talking about the Gokaido and the original sign of the Japanese road, the birthplace of the fish market, we will introduce Kawayanagi called "Ryumiya Castle Nihonbashi Port".

 

 And Nantoka said, "This statue is the image of Otohime," and I shouted intentionally, "Well, what about Ryugu Castle?", And from above, this "Tamate Box" attached to a selfie stick comes down.

 

getting_TamateBox_m.jpg

 

"Oh! What is it? What's this? Possibly Tamo...”

 

 That's right! Speaking of Ryugu Castle in Urashima Taro, it's still a Tamate Box.

 

 It's not a "tamo hand box"

 

 Actually, this is what I asked the staff in advance, and the keyword "Ryumiya Castle" was triggered to have a Tamate box be offered from the back of the customer.

 

 In the box, there was a "roll" with the theme of this town walk.


tamotebako.jpg 

(...I mean, I just put what I made for myself.)

 

 Open the ball box and spread the scroll and read it out.


“Is the key on the border?”

Todays_consept_m.jpg
 On this tour, we walk from Nihonbashi around Kodemmacho toward Kanda and walk along the border between Chuo-ku and Chiyoda-ku, but the Ryukan River, which has now been reclaimed, is the border of the ward. Finally, walk here and head to Kanda Station.

 


 A while after departure from Nihonbashi, at some point from Showa-dori to Takarada Ebisu Shrine to Kodemmacho, talk about the reclaiming of the Hibiya inlet, the Nihonbashi River, and the water channel for the common people of Edo (digging) I will do it. And while walking on a narrow road (Imagawa Koji) from the site of Imagawa Bridge to Ryukan Bridge near the finale, I comment that this is the Ryukan River, that is, the border between Chiyoda-ku and Chuo-ku.

 Usually, when sightseeing or walking around the town, I don't think the concept of bordering is very noticeable. As a keyword, I thought that by inputting the modern border and the origin of the digging into your head, the understanding of walking around the town will deepen. The flow of the digging river was also linked to the flow of history from Edo to Tokyo.

 


 By the way, was there consistency between the title of "Scrolls" and this walking around town?
Oh, how was this show?

 


 By the way, it was not the turtle that carried the Tamate box, but "Centa-kun".
  (First of all, I'm going to put Mr. Center's panel on it.)

 


 That's why NHK doesn't have a Ushi Lome Thailand at all (>_<)

 


 However, there was a risk that people who did not know "Bra Tamori" could become "What's this?" When I actually asked the staff to prepare this, she didn't know the program and accepted it with a strange face such as "Is it meaningless?" (Young people haven’t seen this show.)

 


It's funny and helpful.
BuraTamori_TB_logo.jpeg
 On air on the 7th of this week is set in my hometown of Hokkaido!

 


 Fortunately, most of the 14 participants on this day seemed to be Bratamophans, so they barely understood and laughed with a little bit of a laugh.... I feel like it. It might be a duck or a ridiculous duck ~ (>_<)

 


 The tour took two hours between A, and there was no particular trouble, and somehow managed to finish without difficulty.

 


 Finally, from the historical sites and spots introduced in today's course, we copied and distributed the issues that were also subject to this year's "7th Chuo-ku Tourism Test" exam.
 
For example, there is such a question.

 The heroine of NHK Taiga drama series "Hanamo Yu" Sugibun is the sister of Yoshida Shoin, a warrior from late Tokugawa shogunate. Shoin was imprisoned in Ansei's Prison and executed in Kodemmacho prison. At Jisshi Park in Nihonbashikodenmacho, a monument to Matsukage engraved with the phrase of his resignation, "I will keep it decay in Nobe of Hattohi () Yamato soul." Which of the following place names apply in the blank space?

 


  A. Nagato i. Hagi U. Shimoda E. Musashi

 


 Introducing this phrase of resignation while watching the monument of Yoshida Shoin at Jisshi Park. Other items are also explained on the course, so today's participants should be able to answer all the questions I excerpted.

 


 I'm tired too, so don't dare to answer each other. For details, please purchase "Moshiri Encyclopedia" ~ renew and release new! I gave you a guide.

 


text_book.jpg

 


 Because it was a lie, and I distributed answers with comments together, so I think it was a good souvenir. "For details, please see" Monoshiri Encyclopedia "." 

Sa, Ri, Ge, Na, and captions are put in.

    ↑ Where is it?

 


 It was a guiding that was ready and motivated, but what was it really?

 


 Did you have fun with your guests? (>_<)(>_<)?

 


 I'm sorry if it's an unknown tour. m(___) m... (>_<)(>_<)(>_<)

 


 To be honest, like Nishihira Tateyama, who supervised the tour, I would like to aim for a guide that can be fascinated only with "talking" without using any props, but such skillful art is like me For outlaws

 


I can't do it anymore (>_<)

 


 As a still immature guide, it was my best to make tea with a little twist and props. However, the story art of Nishihira Tateyama and the DNA of Edokko have been installed in my brain memory in this experience, so I would like to use it for future guidance. Thank you for meeting Mr. Tateyama. (Mr. Tateyama, let me call you a master of the heart!)

 


 I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the customers who participated and the staff of Yomiuri Advertising Company and Pomato Pro who followed my poor guide. Thank you very much.

"Marugoto Museum 2015" Nihonbashi tour route (ship)

[CAM] 20:00 on November 4, 2015

 The weather is rainy on Monday (November 2), but it was sunny on November 1 (Sun).

 

 I have experienced the "Nihonbashi Tour Route" from the Nihonbashi dock.

16mm movie screening [105th anniversary of Kyobashi Library]

[The Minnie Cricket] 14:00 on November 4, 2015

On November 1st (Sun), when the Chuo-ku Marugoto Museum 2015 was held, the Kyobashi Library held a screening of a 16-mm movie with the theme of "Tokyo in the Showa 30s".

kyobasi11.JPG 

There were two times from 11:00 and from 15:00, each time in about 60 minutes, I saw the time from 11:00.

kyobasi13.JPG

The contents were "Tokyo Waterfront", "Tokyo Kitchen" and "Tokyo Road" from the Showa 20s to the 1930s, and valuable images of rivers, moats, fruit and vegetable markets, fish markets, and road networks at that time were projected. It was very interesting.

kyobasi14.JPG 

In gallery space, in commemoration of the 105th anniversary of the museum's opening, rare materials such as Nishiki-e and old maps from the local archives, as well as books by Junichirou Tanizaki, a writer from Chuo-ku, were exhibited.

kyobasi15.JPG 

At the sunken garden in front of the library, a lawn was laid, and then a "Ohanashi-kai" was also held.

Have you seen “One Piece”? - Shimbashi Enbujo

[Desire purple] 14:00 on November 3, 2015

100_1861.JPGOne Piece finally went. The big hit manga One Piece, which has exceeded 320 million copies, was announced that it will be performed as Sarunosuke's Super Kabuki II, but it was finally exciting to talk about it, but I was finally looking forward to it, but I misunderstood the release date and I couldn't get a ticket and it's "finally" today. It's full. Lots of young people! Especially the young men are prominent. I'm surrounded by young people who don't see much around me. First of all, the figure of "Luffy" in front of the curtain is Pachiri. The goods section on the second floor is also very crowded, and there are some products that have already sold out tags. The person who was overbuyed can order at a later date, and even though there was an application form, I was very happy with the business, saying, "It's quite easy!"

100_1864.JPG

"Luffy, separated from the straw party on his journey to find the treasure one piece, heard the execution of his brother Ace, who was a member of the Whitebeard Pirates, and tried to rescue him alone in a submarine prison. He broke through an invaluable prison with a dying serious injury, but has already been transferred. There is a fierce decisive battle between the Navy who intends to perform public execution and the Whitebeard Pirates and Luffy who are trying to rescue ... "(Shochiku's pamphlet) This is quite the second half of the original. (At least someone who knew the characters read 20 books on this occasion. Borrowed from a friend who bought an adult.)
"I'm not going to do manga or anime. As Sarunosuke said in an interview, "I'd like to do this in Kabuki," he said, Kabuki, such as the crew raises their names, riders, quickly change, walk around in Honsui, gorgeous costumes, etc. You can make full use of the techniques, and there is also a production of "Oguri" and "Ikari Tomomori" style, so you can make it a kusuri. And the highlight is the speedy turnaround.
It's a very fast pace like the theater company's new sense line, and it's a friend and a "player's youth". I was impressed. Actors appear in the audience aisle and high touch with the audience. (It also appeared on the second floor seat.) There is also Oai chanting, the theme song on the stage (Theatrical company Shiki-style) The sense of unity between the stage and the audience is at its peak.
Funny without complaining. Come to Shimbashi Enbujo to enjoy the excitement of "Great Collaboration between Kabuki and Manga". This is a two-month performance until November 25 (Wednesday). Depending on the date, there is still room.
For inquiries, please contact Ticket Hong Shochiku 0570-999-489 (10:00-18:00)

 

 

 

Harumi Autumn Festival in fine autumn

[The Minnie Cricket] 09:00 on November 3, 2015

On the day of the Chuo-ku Marugoto Museum 2015 held on November 1 (Sun), various events, exhibitions, and performances were held at Harumi's cruise terminal and around it.

haruau11.JPG 

Under the refreshing autumn weather, classic cars were displayed outdoors, and food was available in the stall village where kitchen cars were collected.

haruau13.JPG 

Indoors, visitors could see and experience the juggling show, kite making classes were held, and photo contest prize-winning works were exhibited.

haruau12.JPG 

It was early in the morning when I arrived in Harumi, so there weren't so many crowds yet, but from lunch to afternoon, it would have been crowded with families participating in various events.

Harumi, who can feel the sea breeze of Tokyo Bay, was very pleasant.
