Talking Elevetor



先日仕事で浅草へ。

I went to Asakusa in Tokyo on business.



 
Visited a head office of certain toy manufacture.
 
某玩具メーカー本社にお邪魔しました。



When I got on an elevetor downstairs and pushed the button...
"Goes to the upper floor! Toooh!!!"
What?
Did someone talk???
And then,
"Ninth floor!  Get off!!!"
The voice sounded familiar to me... The speaker was....



1Fでエレベーターに乗り、ボタンを押すと。。。
上へ行くぞっ!トォっっっ!!!」
へっ???   誰か喋った???((((((ノ゚⊿゚)ノ
そしてまた…
「9階だ、降りろっ!!」
聞き覚えのある声…
こ・こ・これは…



Masked Rider!!!
 
仮面ライダー1号 本郷猛ではないかっっっ



What an amusing company!!!
There were four elevetors. So, I got on the another one, then...

"Yipee!!! We've reached the tenth floor!"

なんちゅー楽しい会社〜〜(≧▽≦)
全部で4基あるエレベーター
おもろーい!
他のにも乗ってみると…

「やったぁ〜、10階だよ!」




Now, Anpanman!!!

今度はアンパンマン〜♪
 


They say Gundam or other charactors speak in the rest of the elevetors. Maybe a toy company should have such a sense of  humor;-)
 
他のエレベーターもガンダムなどが喋るらしい…
オモチャを作る会社は、この位遊び心がなくちゃね(*^-^)b 
しかし、このエレベーターに商談しながら乗り込むマジメ顔の社員の方たちが微笑ましい〜(^_−)−☆





And you can enjoy such a panoramic view in the sky lounge.

しかも最上階のラウンジではこんな景色が楽しめる♪♪



We went to a Japanese yam restaurant for luhch near here.

この日はあいにく雨だったけど、とろろ料理専門の美味しいお店があると聞きランチへ♪



They are offering set meals which has a wide range of Japanese yams dishes. I ordered yam croquettes, and "Tororo Rice." "Tororo" is grated yam with soy sauce.

長芋のコロッケ定食♪
もちろんご飯は麦とろ〜〜
この梅味の長芋の漬物が絶品!! 思わずお土産に買って帰ったよ(^_^)v




近いようでもなかなか訪れる機会の少ない浅草。
またこちらの会社を訪問することがあったら、今度は久しぶりに浅草観光しちゃおっかナ♪


Asakusa is one of the most famous spots around Tokyo among foreign tourists. If you visit here, I strongly recommend this restaurant, "Asakusa Mugi-Toro."




FYI, these golden building and object are a head office of brewery. The building on the left has a unique architectural design featuring a glass of beer. The top of the story represents a beer head. And the object on the right hand represents a fire.  When you visit to Asakusa, you can enjoy such a scenery with Tokyo Sky Tree!

  2. Beautiful pictures of Asakusa in Tokyo. Just fun to have speaking elevators in a toy firm, and than the glass of beer and the fire. I like it very much!
    Thank you to show us a bit around in Tokyo and I think the Japanese food is delicious.

  3. Stunning view from sky level, Keity!
    I love this 'glass of beer', just nice idea.
    I understood you, I would be afraid listening some voices in elevator.
    Have a nice week!
