Good morning. Today we're taking the Tokyo Waterway Skytree Tour! We've loaded our kayaks onto a carrier from Hayama and arrived safely at the destination! We'll be setting off from Oshima Komatsugawa Park. 
Everyone boarded the boat carefully, in a different way than when launching from the shore. 
After climbing the old Nakagawa River for a while, enter the waterway on the left. 
The river suddenly narrowed. It was an extraordinary sight, like being on an adventure. 
The Skytree is now closer! 
It's beautiful~~✨ 
I turned left and headed south, with Kinshicho Station on my right. It was cloudy in the morning, but the sun gradually came out! While the photos looked great, I ended up sweating because I was wearing too much clothing lol. 
After a lunch break, we headed to the highlight of the day, Ogibashi Locks! This place is also known as Tokyo's mini Panama Canal, and it adjusts the water level difference between the east and west sides to allow ships to pass through. 
This is what it looks like inside ~ 
Water is being poured out from both sides to raise the water level!
You can see the water surface bubbling. At this point, the water rose about 2.7m.
Our next tour is a bonfire tour scheduled for the national holiday on Friday, February 11th! We look forward to your participation!

Once we passed through the floodgate, we headed towards the Sumida River . Thank you to Mr. S, who joined the tour for the first time! 
Passing through the Shin-Onagigawa floodgate, we arrived at the Sumida River! 
The view suddenly opens up and there's a sense of freedom. Apparently, this is the first time that this tour has been able to reach the Sumida River. That's how good the conditions are today☺ 
At the Sumida River 📷✨ 
After turning around, let's go back through the lock again. 
We've returned to the park! That's our member, Mr. K, in the foreground on the right! He didn't join us this time, but he brought us drinks and bread before we set sail, and coffee after we returned. Thank you so much!! The warm coffee really warmed my tired body~☕ 
One of our members, Mr. H, kept a record of the day. We rowed really well! 
Thank you to everyone who took part in our first tour this year!
