  We took a walk in Tsukiji River Park recommended by Ginzo. 　　

The flowerbed was full of flowers, and many people were invited cheerfully and enjoyed it.

  It was quite different compared to two weeks ago. 　

The white of the willow was vivid. 

 The sun It is in full bloom earlier than Yoshino cherry tree The flowers are large and dark. It stands out.

  A lot of people stop and look at the flowers.

 　　　　　Japanese white-eye came to suck the nectar of flowers. 　　　　　　　　　　

Hananoki is a plant of the maple family, but it blooms before the leaves. 　　

These Kiki trees turn beautifully in autumn and delight our eyes.

 Despite the occasional chills, the soft sunlight is a season that adds warmth and warmth every day.

The trees gradually spread their branches, and the small buds swell little by little, preparing to bloom adorable flowers.

Here at Harumi Triton Square's "Flower Terrace", "Autumn Leaves Li (Benibasmomo)" blooms.

The deciduous Odaka tree of the family Rosaceae improved for ornamental use.

It is also known as "Akabazakura" and "Venice Momo".

In early spring, there are many small pale pink flowers, and the calyx is reddish purple and its contrast is beautiful. I hear that the leaves are reddish purple from the new leaves and are used as flower material.

The flowers are somewhat sparse compared to cherry blossoms, and there is no cut at the tip of the petals.

Is it just the right season to take a walk on the terrace?

I used a ticket for the Tokyo Waterfront Line in raffle at Riverside Autumn Festa, which was introduced in a blog post last September. Actually, I thought after waiting for the cherry blossoms to bloom, but due to the expiration date, it was a little earlier.

We chose the "Ryogoku-Odaiba Cruise" course. Boarding from Ecchu Island in front of St. Luke's Garden → Hamarikyu → Odaiba Kaihinkoen → Hamarikyu → In front of St. Luke's Garden → Etchujima → Both countries → Sakurabashi → I'm going around with both countries.

There are many other courses, and there are temporary boats depending on the season. For more information, please visit the Tokyo Waterfront Line website.

  　"Sakura" which we boarded

Take a leisurely on a warm boat to Odaiba. Relaxed seats are comfortable and seem to sleep unintentionally. On the way back, I went to the deck on board with the cold to take a picture.

You know Rainbow Bridge. The distance between the two main towers on the left and right supporting the bridge is 11 mm wider at the top than at the base, but it seems that this is because the earth is round. I feel the size of the scale.

As you go upstream to Kachidokibashi, Chuo-ohashi Bridge, Kiyosu Bridge, and the sky tree gradually becomes larger.

(Lower) In Sakurabashi, it's so close. 

On the way, I went under a lot of bridges. Of these, Komagata Bridge, Kuramae Bridge, and Umaya Bridge were constructed as part of the reconstruction plan after the Great Kanto Earthquake. During this time, many other bridges were built on the Sumida River. About two weeks from Great East Japan Earthquake. It is difficult to get on the road to reconstruction, but when I learned that people 90 years ago built several bridges after the Great East Japan Earthquake, I looked up at the sky tree towering over the blue sky while remembering the song `` Bridge over tomorrow '' I was

 "Kanhizakura", which is planted on the "Sakura promenade" along Harumi Triton Square and the Asashio Canal, is at its best.

It is a warm cherry tree that blooms before ordinary cherry blossoms in early spring when it is still cold, and blooms bright scarlet or dark pink florets full of branches.

The tree shape is cohesive, the flowers do not open and are bell-shaped, and bloom like a bird.

The calyx tubes and sepals are also scarlet.

It is a species distributed in southern China and Taiwan, etc. It is said that it is also used in Okinawa to declare the flowering of cherry blossoms.

It is sometimes called "Hikanzakura", but it is often referred to as "Kanhizakura" in recent years because it is easily confused with "Hikanzakura".

Winter birds that came from the Kamchatka area in the fall spend winter in Japan and fly from here and there.

Today, on my way home from shopping, I saw off the squirrel flying from dike from Tsukiji in Kachidokibashi.

"In the name, there is no one who thinks of the city bird that has no word."

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　The song written by Ise Monogatari Narihira Ariwarano

      Are you going to fly away soon because there are a lot of lily turtles? ？ ？ ？ ・・・・・

　　I thought I had a camera.

        A lot of Japanese plums are gathered. ？ ？ ？

　　　On the right side of this photo, there were more Japanese gulls.

　　　They were lined up toward the river.

　　　When I was looking at it with thought, "It's hard to jump out ...", I jumped off all at once.

    It has risen high in the sky.

　　I couldn't follow the camera at too fast.
