Isn't the combination of a Kangoo and a bicycle the best?
Nagatoro means "river," so the first thing they did after parking the car was to go to Nagatoro Iwadatami. The name "Nagatoro" comes from the fact that the river becomes blue and stagnant around this area, and the current slows down.
The two of us are in a relaxing mode as we take in the view of the lazy river. The fatigue of a long drive is healed here.
After that, we wander around the shopping street. In busy places, I get off my bicycle and push it while walking.
Bicycles are great because you can make small turns smoothly. It is the only vehicle that allows me to get to my destination quickly and easily while I would normally be waiting for a train or bus.
It's a lot of fun to wander around an unfamiliar city on a bicycle. I try to rent bicycles when I go on business trips. I like the fact that I can take various side trips at my own pace.
So we stopped at a sweet shop along the way to replenish our sugar intake. Shaved ice is a must during the hot season. It cools down your body from the inside.
The route back from the city to the parking lot is a different route than the one we came in on. Since I am riding a bicycle, I dare to avoid the shortest route, and since I am on a bicycle, it is fun to take various paths.
In Tokyo, there are many traffic lights and people, so it is often difficult to ride a bicycle smoothly. But when you come to a local place like this, it is nice to pedal at a leisurely pace. It is fun to ride a bicycle slowly and observe the scenery.
I like the idea of coming to an unfamiliar place by car and exploring it by bicycle. Isn't the combination of a 'Kangoo' and a bicycle the best?" (Kangoo)
