Maruko bashi

Marukobashi 1

Maruko-bashi runs across Tamagawa (Tama river) which borders Tokyo and Kanagawa. Depending on where I’m headed, the car navigation system (car navi for short) greets me with a “You’ve entered Tokyo” (東京都に入りました) or “You’ve entered Kanagawa” (神奈川県に入りました) whenever I drive across this bridge. There’s a walkway for pedestrians on either side of the bridge. If you’re up for it, a pretty nice stroll awaits. Today, I’m just here for the lights.

    Lol at first, I thought you meant the year of the photos when u said the time *smacks myself in the face*
    Gotta love those car navigation systems, their maps are so detailed and very useful in a big city like Tokyo. I wonder if your allowed to change the voice of the system :3

    If I were around in 1914, I would be pretty ancient today. ^^.
