 The scenery with flowers that change the expression every season will heal your heart and give new excitement every year.

I am deeply moved by this season, when plants and plants are sprouting all at once.

At the "Green Terrace" and "Flower Terrace" at Harumi Triton Square, plants began to bloom in response to the soft sunlight as if they were waiting for spring.

At first, pheasant's eye, which had bloomed on the ground, stretched its stems as it warmed, spread its wing-shaped leaves, and grew its plants.

There are a variety of pansies in the "Slope Garden" along the Asashio Canal.

In early spring, when the activity of insects is not yet active, yellow is noticeable in the grass flowers.

Yellow is a color that shines vividly. It makes you feel the warmth of the sun and softens your heart.

　　On a sunny holiday afternoon, I had my father and son at Harumi Pier.

 

"Dad, great.

　　This ship is too big."

"It's a ship that connects all over the world. It's not half the size."

"From this deck, you throw paper tapes and see them off. I've seen it on TV."

 

"Dad, you can see the Rainbow Bridge on the other side."

Father, "It's a good view. The whole bridge can be seen clearly.

　　Let's walk over last year. I was scared when I looked down because this ship was so high that I could pass in time."

"I was not scared."

"That's right. You're strong.

　　You could see a glittering building in the north from the top of the bridge.

　　That's the Harumi Passenger Ship Terminal."

"I remember it.　I saw it shining brightly."

Father: "The view is good, so it will be the best place to see for the Tokyo Minato matsuri in May and the Tokyo Bay Fireworks Festival in summer.

　　The night view will be beautiful."

 

"What is that high chimney?"

Father, "That's the chimney of the Central Incineration Plant.

　　Let's search on the internet.

　　The height of 177.5 meters is the second in Tokyo after the Toshima Incineration Plant.

　　The incineration capacity is 600 tons per day.

　　We are supplying the residual heat to "Hot Plaza Harumi."

 

　　Look into the face of the son who is not very interested.

My father, "I wonder if I can't get an image.

　　There is a free tour, so why don't you apply for it next time?"

"That's interesting."

My father: "It's a bit troublesome if you say it's fun.

　　You'll be surprised at the size of the fire, such as the fire running during incineration.

　　How is garbage from schools, homes, companies, etc. treated?

　　By knowing that, I think what you can see will be different."

 

　　It's been a while,

Father, "Dad looks at the situation after the earthquake.

　　I couldn't say anything.

　　I can't tell the screen of the TV.

　　That's why I was very happy that Tokyo moved quickly to the debris disposal.

　　It's a heart-breaking thing."

 

 

"Dad, the spring sea is calm."

My father, "The clear sea of spring."

　　・・The sea is connected to the world.

　　

 

 

 

While conscious of spring, I thought it was cold and cold, but when I crossed Chuo-ohashi Bridge, Kawazu cherry blossoms were blooming.

Japanese white-eye was only singing, but I was very satisfied with the cherry blossoms a little earlier. 　　　　　　　　

　　　　　　

Along the river from the square of Paris was a crocus field.

When it gets a little warmer, one side will be yellow, white and purple.

It was a time to feel spring even in a little cold wind.

 　　　　　　

 

 

Tadashi Kawamata's project "Tokyo In Progress", which introduced "under construction" in Paris in an article a week ago, has opened today.

   

   

As you climb up the slope made of wood, you will reach the Wood Terrace.

I'm glad that there is a bench.

　View from the terrace (toward Tokyo Sky Tree) 

 

The flowers in the crocus field are really beautiful with more numbers in the past week.

It's going to be a very popular spot.

 

 

 The graduation ceremony of Chuo Kumin College in 2011 was held on Saturday, March 17 from 2:00 pm to 4:30 pm in the 4th floor hall of the Tsukishima Social Education Center. .

This year's graduates and a large number of current students who send them participated. 

There were greetings from the president of this college (Mayor Yada), the chairman of the education committee, the words of the lecturer representative, and the words of the graduate representative.

He described the joy of learning regardless of age at this opportunity, and the joy of having many friends through this.

　　　　　　　　　　 　

In the second part, the attraction "Kuchibue Concert" was performed.

 Kimiko Wakiyama, who won the overall championship in the adult women's section of the "International Flute Tournament" held in the United States in 2007, the transparent whistle and the exquisite accompaniment of guitarist Kimihiko Matsumiya Everyone fell in love with.

From a very peaceful atmosphere, such as a whistle conversation between Dr. Wakeyama on the stage and current students at the venue who attended "Let's blow Kuchibue" at the inhabitant of a ward college, this college is not just a sale of knowledge It turned out that teachers, students, and students know each other and learn and have a bond of "good learning" in the future.

 　　

 

"Yurikamome" completed the "Lifelong Learning Supporter Training Course" with 70 credits.

I moved to another venue with Mr. Suzuki, who took care of me, held a thank-you party, talked with real talks, and had a fun time.　　

　  　　　　　　　　

 

 

Before the Equinox Day, I came to feel the soft sunlight. Crocus is one of the first flowers to tell spring. Now, the crocus is spreading all over the Paris Square of Ishikawajima Park. The scenery where pretty flowers are in full bloom is best to see with your eyes than photos, so please come and see the real thing.

     

I can countless yellow, white, and purple crocusts at my feet, and when I look at the sky, the sky tree is clear. It was a luxurious walk.

 

Currently, Tadashi Kawamata's "View from Tokyo In Progress Sumida River" is under construction in Paris Square.

I'm looking forward to what I can do about opening on March 20.
