[Silver] October 27, 2009 09:00

 Today, I was worried about the event with a little rain from the morning, but I started safely led by a police car.

The police car takes the "Nihonbashi Road Mark".

 Thank you very much, Mr. Pepo.

 Children are complaining that traffic safety is from Nihonbashi. It would be nice to be able to convey it to everyone all over the country.

Would you like to go to "Chuo-ku Shrine Tour"?

[Silver] October 23, 2009 09:30

 Why don't you spend a healthy day visiting shrines on a refreshing autumn day?

Today, I walked from Kodemmacho to Tsukishima about the "Chuo-ku Shrine Tour" that I learned on October 3.

You can purchase red seals at each company. It's 1,000 yen. The vermilion seal stamp costs 200 yen at each shrine.

 When I went up the station in Kodemmacho, there was an explanation panel of the historic site, but turned right without going there.

 P1010008.jpg

 Even at Sugimori Shrine, everything is ready for "Bettara City". This is also the main family, Motomoto, etc.

 

 It is one of Edo Mitomi, and is a lottery. There is an explanation with the origin of the lottery. Pray me with a jumbo lottery.

P1010014.jpg

Near the Ningyocho Station intersection, "Eissa, Genji Shop!" A trace. Turn left and go to Kasama Inari Shrine.

P1010030.jpg

 When I went in the direction of Ningyocho 1-1, a whale suddenly appeared. 

 

 Seeing the explanation of whales, the sea and Ningyocho, I was convinced.

P1010031.jpg

 Koami Shrine. Praying that the spirit of evil will be repelled, and two beats and one bow.

 Next, go to Tepposhu Shrine. Let's go around the bridge for a while.

Look at the armor bridge to the right, cross Kayaba Bridge, and turn left at the intersection of Kayabacho. In the middle of Reigishi Bridge, go a little further, touch Shin Kamejima Bridge and go to Kamejima Bridge. There are explanation panels of Mifunetegumi, Shogen River Bank and Zuiken Kawamura. Crossing the bridge,

P1010044.jpg

 There is a monument of Takenori Horibe.

 Beyond the bridge is the explanation panels of Basho's stone monument, Yanagi Shisei in Ginza, Sharaku Toshusai, and Tadataka Ino.

 Return to Kameshima Bridge and go to Tepposu Shrine via Takahashi.

 This time it's Minami Takahashi. The main part of the bridge is the Sanren Truss Bridge, which uses a part of the former Ryogoku Bridge.

P1010056.jpg

 As it is, straight, cross the traffic light and find a mansion with large tree branches and leaves on the left side about 30m. That's Oiwa Inari Tamiya Shrine. 

P1010060.jpg

 Is Mr. Iwashi a summer tradition? I wasn't able to get vermilion seal stamp.

P1010061.jpg

 There's a ball on top of a hundred degrees. It is a private folk cultural property of the ward.

P1010064.jpg

 I stopped by because there was Konpira Palace nearby. Marukin of offertory box is a little different.

P1010069.jpg

 Now, cross the Chuo-ohashi Bridge and go to Paris!

P1010070.jpg

 In the center of the bridge is the words and bronze statue of Jack Sirak (without title, personal name) at that time.

COSTA CLASSICA Entering Port again

[Yurikamome] October 21, 2009 09:00

Passenger ship COSTA CLASSICA 52,926.00 tons ITALY (registered)

We arrived at Harumi Wharf after 8:00 on October 15 via Nagasaki.

As the white ship on the left side of the Rainbow Bridge passed at right angles and approached the quay of Harumi Wharf, the welcome fountain rose from the two floating fire boats waiting. 

 

The welcome fountain Costakurasica JPG

 

On the way home in the afternoon, on the bus bound for Harumi Wharf, I was a little surprised when I came to Japan with two Italians who came to Japan in Costakurasica and asked, "Did you come to sightseeing in Costakurasica?" He answered, "Yes," with a smile. "

On the way back to the library in the evening, when I told a couple-like person spreading the map at the intersection of Kachidoki, "I will help you if you have any problems," I said, "I will return to Costakurasicaca, but the bus stop I don't understand ... "I happened to go to the bus stop and happened to see a photo of Costakurasica deer that I saw in the morning. "

 

 

Today, the night view was beautiful, so I took a night view of Costakurasica.

 

 

 

 

 

The brave figure of COSTA CLASSICA and Chuo-ku from the water bus

[Yurikamome] October 21, 2009 09:00

 Friday, October 16 I took a water bus to take a picture of the whole COSTA CLASSICA.

I was excited when the water bus approached Harumi Wharf in the pleasant wind.

I was able to capture the brave figure in the camera from the best place.

And I put the back in the camera.

Costakurasica departed for Kobe at two p.m.

At the same time, I photographed the scenery of Chuo-ohashi Bridge (built in 1994 with the redevelopment of Tsukuda Island) and Chuo-ku seen from the other side of Rainbow Bridge.

"Bettara City" is a festival.

[Silver] October 21, 2009 09:00

 "Bettara-shi" means pickled radish pickles pickled in koji, and the koji is attached to the kimono with "Betari".

That's why it was named. I walked around the city tonight.

 With a large lantern, the economy is booming.

CIMG2746.jpg

 In front of the god of Takarada Ebisu Shrine, there are lanterns by Kabuki actors.

CIMG2747.jpg

 The names of Meijiza, Sadanji Ichikawa, Kikugoro Onoe, Tamasaburo Bando, Tokizo Nakamura, etc. are scattered!

CIMG2749.jpg

 On the other side, there is a shrine. The festival is exciting in sacred wine.

CIMG2750.jpg

 I was the only one who felt "Betara-shi" while refraining between stalls such as squid and okonomiyaki?

CIMG2753.jpg

 Are you negotiating the price too?

CIMG2754.jpg

 Along with many stores, "Kaishin" was also opened. I bought 4 pieces for this smile!gemini

CIMG2756.jpg

 It is a tradition that has been loved for a long time. I'm going to come again next year. Silver

 

 

Recommended for treasure hunting game walking

[Silver] 09:00 on October 5, 2009

 On October 3, walk from Kyobashi to Tsukudajima via Irifune, Tsukishima Nishinakadori Shopping Street, Kachidokibashi, Tsukiji Market Outer, Tsukiji Station. Travel by subway from Tsukiji Station to Kayabacho. From Kayabacho, I walked in search of two treasure hunting shrines and temples.

The total travel time is about three and a half hours.

On the way, I learned about "Chuo-ku Shrine Tour" at Sumiyoshi-jinja Shirine, bought a red seal book, and received three vermilion seal stamps, including Namishi Inari Shrine and Suitengu on the way.

It's a refreshing season. Why don't you look for treasure and walk in stamp rally at the antenna shop?

 The birthplace of katsu curry. I didn't know. It also passes in front of the antenna shop Aomori store.

 If you find the police box on your right hand, go in that direction. You can see the lanterns of Inari Shrine. There is also Fujizuka in the back of main hall.

 In the direction of Tsukuda-ohashi Bridge. On the way across Tsukuda-ohashi Bridge, "Himiko" is located on the Sumida River.

 It says "litter under the lighthouse", but surprisingly easily find the quiz keyword and fill out the application form.

After all, visit the local gods. Here, I learned about the red seal book of "Chuo-ku Shrine Tour" and purchased it.

 A ceramic flat plaque that is said to have been written by Prince Arisugawa. The mizubansha engraves the state of the fishery at that time.

There are also monuments such as bonito mounds. After this, it's fun to head to Tsukishima Nishinakadori Shopping Street.

Between the banners of Monja, the downtown atmosphere remains warm. There is also an easy French shop and Kouta classroom.

Tsukishima Nishinaka 2.jpg

 For a long time, the safety of the town is thanks to the policeman. The oldest active police box in the Metropolitan Police Department, established around 1921. He is currently active as a regional safety center.

After passing through the Nishinaka-dori shopping street, cross Kachidokibashi.
