Since it was the autumn tourist season, a foreign passenger ship entered the port for the first time in a long time.

Looking at the telescope, I could see a large number of foreigners looking at Tokyo from decks and windows on the top floor.

The flag was "BAHAMAS" and entered the port from Sendai around 9 o'clock and left for Osaka in the evening.

It was a day trip to Tokyo ... Where did you see ...? ？

On September 28 (Tuesday), it was raining since the morning, but the rain stopped in the evening and the change in the sky at the sunset was too beautiful, so I pressed the shutter. I took a picture of "Shiodome" from "Kachidoki".

 

 

The fare is free for everyone on the Edo bus on October 1, 2, and 3 (Friday).

Let's rediscover the charm of the new Chuo-ku on the Edo bus for the autumn day.

Invite your family and friends to participate in the Chuo-ku Commercial Festival “Treasure Hunting” event, which is being held at the same time.

Sunday, October 31 The whole museum day of Chuo-ku is also free.

 

 

 

Thank you for waiting. I will write a diary of the "Edo Bus" following two times.

Even if there is a small number of people waiting, no, or even little reality,

If you have two courses in the south and north, you can feel a little lonely and memorable with just one ride.

After all, I would like to take the other course.

 

(Because there are two kinds of sweets, and if you eat one and know the taste, the other.

I'm going to reach out. I have expectations about what it tastes.

 

By the way, how about taste of "Edo bus (Chuo-ku community bus)" south circulation?

 

Yeah, "The sharpest of a skyscraper, colored by blue of the sky and river."　(What's wrong?)

 

South circulation crosses multiple bridges during operation.

This can be said to be a major feature.

It is a course where you can feel the sea breeze.

 

A truss like an ayatori of Minami Takahashi on the Kamejima River.

The fun of cable stretching of "Chuo-ohashi Bridge" over Sumida River.

The Kachidokibashi, which also spans the Sumida River, conveys a solid sense of weight.

 

I'm a little excited about the unusual bridge seen from the center of the roadway.

 

In addition to medical institutions such as hospitals and public health centers, ward centers, ward centers, sports parks, etc.

We go around in detail, mainly in public institutions.

We also stop by spots such as Tsukuda, Tsukishima and Harumi.

 

Oh, a customer using a wheelchair could see the bus stop.

Normally, there is no space for wheelchairs to enter.

Then the driver quickly gets down to the seat and asks the passengers in the two seats on the right front to move back.

At the same time, fold the seats to secure space for wheelchairs.

 

The boarding slope for wheelchairs was also stored in the backrest of the driver's seat.

Easy to get on with a non-step bus.

 

The passengers also knew it, and they gave it to each other very naturally.

There was a figure that made the most of the space of a small bus with care.

When I saw a series of flows, I felt like I was shy.

 

As you use the Edo bus, the mascot "Fuku beckoning cat" will look more and more cute.

Not only because my eyes became familiar, but also the appearance of moving around while making use of small turns is cute.

I felt it.

 

South circulation is a course that goes around a variety of places that can be used according to the purpose.

If you jump in the wind casually, you will be able to find a new charm of Chuo-ku.

 

 

 

I found a sardine cloud from Toyomi Bridge.

I finally say goodbye to the long and hot summer.

From the Sumida River Terrace in Shinkawa, you can see Chuo-ohashi Bridge and Okawabata River City 21.

 

 

 

The 29th Chuo-ku Tourism Ambassador and Miss Chuo have been decided.

It is Mao Kamata, Saori Kobayashi, and Kumi Sasaki.

Congratulations.　　　(Photo from left: Kobayashi, Kamata, Sasaki)

 The harsh summer heat continues, but I've been watching the finals, so I'll introduce it.

 

 On September 4th (Saturday), the final round was held on a special stage where the "Tenjo Statue" in the central hall on the 1st floor of Mitsukoshi Nihonbashi Main Store watched.

 The above 10 judges are standing right below the stage, so the contestants who receive self-promotion and questions would have been nervous.

 

 The screening will be completed in about 1 hour and 20 minutes, and the jury will make a selection in a separate room.

 

 

In the meantime, as an attraction, singing songs based on Mother Teresa of singer "U (Yu)" was performed, and everyone at the venue listened to the beautiful singing voice for a while.

30 minutes after the selection started, the results of the screening are finally announced. The contestants line up on the stairs on both sides of the statue of the heavenly woman.

The first call was entry number 14 "Kumi Sasaki", Mr.　

Next, Entry No. 13 "Saori Kobayashi", Mr.

 

And lastly, the entry number 19 "Mao Kamata" was called.

The three people in the 29th generation who became the tourist ambassador and Miss Chuo were newly appointed from the 28th Tourism Ambassador and Miss Chuo.

 

I was dressed in "Tasuki" and "Gown", and the glory "Tiara" was put on each head.

After that, diplomas, prizes, and supplementary prizes were awarded by the jury chair, ward mayor, chairman, and sponsoring companies in the order of Mr. Kamata, Kobayashi, and Sasaki of the new tourism ambassador, Miss Chuo. It's very luxurious!
