Here we go... Sleeping in.
Now, it's time to start the summer vacation touring, which was shortened from the original schedule due to cat-sitting duties.We left the scorching heat of Tokyo early in the morning and headed for Tohoku!
There was no way I could do it. As usual, I had stayed up until past 4 a.m. the day before to work....Departure at 11:30 a.m....
It was already past 1:00 p.m. when we took our first break at Hanyu PA on the Tohoku Expressway... But today, I had already set up a stopover point in advance, which was unusual for me.
Gundam stands in Tochigi
First, here.
Standing majestically on the far left of the screen is...
Isn't this the RX-78 that the woosang generation can't get enough of?
It's made of plastic bottles. It's over 2 meters high, and since I was looking up at it, I guess it's about 2 meters and 50 centimeters high. By the way, this is what the back looks like.
The plastic bottle feeling that overflows.
On the right, from the second floor of the building, Kamen Rider V3 was watching us in a surreal environment....
Even the wosans who didn't get a chance to see the Odaiba Gundam were very satisfied.
If you're not satisfied with the quality of this one, there's a Bandai Museum nearby, so you can go there for a palate cleanser.
I was very satisfied with PB Gundam, so I didn't stop by.
Gundam stands in Fukushima.
We continued northward. The time was already close to 5:00 p.m., and the heat was easing up. The scenery around us"My Sense of Tohoku"The first thing that comes to mind is the drifting of the
And here's the second stop of the day. Unlike the previous location, I can directly confront the white guy of the Federation with my green Mobile Armor.
It's a dumb gundam that's famous in its own right.
It's made of steel, and you can see that a lot of effort was put into its construction, but... But the overall form is just plain bad... The rust on the face looks like tears of blood.
Grandpa in the back... You can see how weak his legs and feet are... But unlike the PET bottle Gundam of Tochigi, the back of the Gundam is also a well-crafted work of art.
If you still have the will to fight, to rage... I thought... I'm sure you can take on... Is that too much to ask?
This is why I filled it with Gundam ingredients.
Skyline is open until 5pm.
According to the route I had set in my smartphone navigation system the night before, we were going to drive along the Bandai-Azuma Skyline, Lake Line, and Gold Line before entering the inn in Aizu Wakamatsu, but we left too late. The Bandai-Azuma Skyline closes at 17:00, but it was already 17:00 at this point... We had no choice but to follow the navigation system up the mountain and head for the inn on the open road......
The fog was coming in and the scenery was not very enjoyable.
Still, I was pretty satisfied and checked into the hotel early since I was already full from Gundam x2 on the first day.
Night meal. The first alternate to hit Shen
Now, dinner. Our first choice was a one-minute walk from the hotel, so we headed there....
Ramen Jiro Aizuwakamatsu Ekimae Store is closed... Actually, I checked the official Twitter the day before....
I knew they were only open for lunch, so I had no choice... So I asked Google and ate a bowl of Miso Katsu Don nearby, and the first day of touring was over!
Now, I'm going to run through Tohoku!
