Summer vacation to "Sumida Aquarium" at the foot of the Sky Tree. It's fun without being secret!

Hello!

At the end of August, after the state of emergency declaration ended, I made various reservations to return to my hometown when I was immune to vaccines. Canceled sadly. I feel sorry for making the children happy every time...

Well, during the summer vacation, I don't go anywhere at all and I'm a completely withdrawn style, but I thought, "If it's relatively close and has good hygiene measures, why not?" That's what I'm talking about. I have introduced it several times in this column, but I would like to tell you about the atmosphere due to the corona crisis (this is the situation when I went there before the state of emergency was extended).

Sumida Aquarium is located in Tokyo Skytree Town and is a moderately sized aquarium that both adults and children can enjoy.

Currently, in order to avoid congestion, the style is to purchase tickets online and obtain a web numbered ticket in advance before visiting the museum. Tickets are 2,300 yen for adults, 1,100 yen for elementary school students, 700 yen for preschool children over 3 years old, and free for children under 3 years old.

Tickets can also be purchased at the Ichio window, but online numbered tickets are required

In order to maintain a social distance between customers, there is a sign saying "Three Penguins Distance" to keep a distance of 2m.

At the reception desk, there is an explanation of the sense of distance for people other than penguins. Compared to before the corona wreck, I get the impression that "even though it's a holiday, it's quite empty." It's a proof that the admission limit is solid.

It's a lot less crowded than before.A new workshop called Kitchen was built where the landing was. You can watch as much as you want without any trouble.

Sit comfortably and watch the fish Penguins swim right in front of you

The hands-on program is kept to a minimum so as not to get crowded, but on the day you go, there is no entry fee for making your own KireiKirei bottle. was doing an event. The line was not long and was guided in about 5 minutes.

Participation fee is free and you can take it home, so you can say that you can get Kirei Kirei for free. My daughter drew a penguin, and my son drew a jellyfish. Very satisfied with the finish

The inside of the building is cool and not crowded, so it is very comfortable. The sight of the children staring blankly at the jellyfish was impressive, but when I walked around the museum, they said cheerfully, "Well then, let's go home!" You get tired of it quickly, or maybe you concentrated on it all in one go...

I was fascinated by jellyfish at the souvenir corner, so I took them home

So, I recommend the Sumida Aquarium. Isn't it fun to eat and shop at Skytree Town?

In Tokyo, where the number of infected people in Tokyo exceeds 3,000 every day, I wanted to take him to various places during the summer vacation, but it seems difficult. I would like to continue to find ways to enjoy summer vacation at home.
