Watch Waseda-Keio Regatta 2023 vs. School Eight
This year, I watched Waseda-Keio Regatta near Ryogoku Bridge.
In order to avoid lightning, the departure time was changed by 25 minutes to 15:15.
This change created a landscape like the Sumida River.
Shortly before the departure time, the water bus "Doi" slowly passes through Ryogoku Bridge from the upstream.
After that, change the direction of travel to the right and move to a place close to the terrace near Chuo-ku, and the water bus stopped about 550 meters away from the starting point.
The water bus is on standby until the crew that departed the boat has passed.
The water bus passengers who happened to be on board also heard the announcement and seemed to enjoy watching the game on the left side of the boat, and it was an enviable special seat.
Will the referee pursues and passes under each crew's safety and landmarks to see if they are racing on the correct race course?
It was a moment when I felt the importance of giving equal chances to win.
What I think next year
This photo shows a crew who was waiting for the weather to recover at the goal point on the way to the starting point. The clear sky that I couldn't imagine after the heavy rain spread.
Last year and this year, I watched the game from the same place, but there was almost no boat difference, and you can see the players rowing in a healthy state, so it is a perfect place to watch Waseda-Keio Regatta.
With reference to the upstream area, for example, if you set up a corner selling popular amazake, sea bream, and lunch boxes in Ningyocho, this tournament may become a lively and proud spring tradition in Chuo-ku.
Waterside in the morning
In the morning, we went to the sea forest water stadium to help elementary school boat classes.
Many people enjoyed sports, including marathon competitions and canoe teams that can run in a straight line of 2000m, and para-rowing teams during training camps. .
On the way to the sea forest, when I passed the Tokyo Bay side of Toyosu Ohashi, I saw the unusual appearance of the Harumi Passenger Ship Terminal.
I was used to making new things in this area, but I saw the scenery where things are gone for granted.
I would like to see a lot of scenery again this year.
