Hello everyone, my name is Toshishige Kanda.It is the port of Wakagou in Niijima, Tokyo.From here comes the ferry that crosses to Kozushima village.Since we arrived early, let's take a walk.Tsunami evacuation facilityOh! This is a tsunami evacuation facility so that port people can escape from tsunamis.I tried climbing the stairs.A photo from the top It's a very beautiful view.There is a heliport. Patients can be transported to hospitals in Tokyo as well as in emergencies.Wakago district disaster prevention warehouse Emergency food is stored here, so it's safe and secure.Ashitaba rice is also a souvenir, but since it is a long-term storage food, it can be stored here.Now let's go down the stairs.I met a local who is fishing at the fishing port. What can I catch? "Hm? Ah, Fugu" Fugu? ! "Actually, I don't want to catch pufferfish. I'm not catching them, but they're all going to eat the bait." What? Really?After that, 6 puffer fish were caught. Comparing patience?Boat from Niijima Village to Kozushima VillageThe ship has arrived. From now on, we will cross over to Kozushima Village.View of Niijima's Wataribune Port from the seaThe photo above is a view of Niijima from the sea.The photo below is Kozushima. Both islands are beautiful. I am also reflected in the photo?Kozushima Port Arrived at the tsunami evacuation facility.Evacuation is possible on the 5th and 6th floors. In the unlikely event that a tsunami hits during your trip, you can rest assured.The brown building is the Kozushima Village Tourism Association and the boat ticket office. If you have any questions about sightseeing, let's visit.About 2,000 people live in Kozushima Village, Tokyo. Since long ago, many people have visited for hobbies such as diving and fishing. Swordfish is famous.At port town, the members of the orchestra dispatched from the Tokyo metropolitan government gathered after the school concert, and they are incorporating the opportunity for live performances into their education.The photo below is Maehama Beach.It's beautiful.The scenery from the olden days remains intact.Ashitaba Field is on top of that mountain.This is beautiful! Is it an island inhabited by gods?I, Kanda, have a connection with Mr. Kozushimamura, so the word “God” is attached. Is there a god?! = miracle = fine playA lot of fish in the river, a lot of green?!There are no rivers on the island. When it rains, rivers appear.I have met with the government office and people involved in agriculture, and have asked them to help me purchase Ashitaba. However, it tody seems that the person in charge is in Tokyo.It seems that only a few Ashitaba in Kozushima village can be taken.It's a precious Ashitaba.I was very happy because all my old acquaintances were doing well.Let's meet again.Souvenir ⁈ Ice cream made with passion fruit from Kozushima village, I received it on the spot. delicious! You can also get passion. Doesn't it feel like ashitaba on the island where passion is grown is packed with nutrients? looks delicious!I'm sure Ashitaba have passion too. Because "God exists". I'm sure Kozushima Village's Ashitaba rice will also be delicious. I would appreciate it if you could share your precious Ashitaba with me, even if only a little. Thank you very much.
