連休後半 Latter Days of Golden Week

子供の日は日本科学未来館へ。予想通り混雑していましたが、見るものを絞り計画的に動いたため、イライラはなし。写真はアシモのショーの会場に吊るされていたジオコスモス。何千枚ものLEDパネルを張り合わせたもので、見ていて飽きません。アシモも可愛かったんだけど、思わずこちらをパチリ。

We went to National Museum of Emerging Science and Innovationon Children's Day. It was as crowded as we expected, but focusing on a limited number of exhibition and moving as planned, we were free from frustration. The picture shows Geocosmos hung in the site where we saw ASIMO's show. According to an interpreter, it is made with some thousands of LED panels and I can never be bored with watching it. So I took picture of it, rather than ASIMO, though he was cute.


アース・ストーリーという３D映画を観るため、メガネをつけた子供たち。このメガネは記念に持ち帰り可でした。面白かったんだけど、私は忌野清志郎のナレーションが心地よくて、途中から爆睡^_^; 母は疲れていたんだと思いますぅ。

My kids wearing glasses to watch 3D movie "Earth Story." They could keep their glasses as memento. Though the movie was interesting, I soon slept tightly because narration by Imawano Kiyoshiro was so comfortable. Maybe mother was too tired.

こんなところにもシーサーが！嬉しくて思わずパチリ。住環境の展示コーナーで 見つけました。暑さをしのぐ工夫に満ちた住居ということで、沖縄の伝統的な民家が紹介されていました。

I was so excited to find a shisa in such a place that I took a picture instantly. I found him in exhibition site where traditional Okinawan house was introduced as a residence full of devices to beat heat.



連休最終日は東京ドームで巨人‐ヤクルト戦を観戦。古田は出場せず、巨人が勝って私にとってはビールだけが楽しみの一夜でしたが、４本ものホームランが飛び出して、子供たちは生の迫力に狂喜していました。

We watched a baseball game Giants - Swallows on the last day of Golden Week. As Furuta didn't play and Giants won, my happiness lied only in beer, but kids were very excited and happy about seeing vigorous 4 homeruns live.
