今日はこなつママが元町の歯医者に定期検診に行く日なので、私とこなつも一緒に元町まで行き、終わるのを待つ間その界隈を散歩することにした。
Today is the day my wife goes to the dentist’s office in Motomachi for a routine checkup, so Konatsu and I decided to go with her to Motomachi and take a walk around the area while we wait for her to finish.
まだ商店街は開店時間前。ママを下ろして港の見える丘公園に向かった。
It was still before opening time in the shopping arcade. I dropped my wife off and headed for Harbor View Park.
公園内はいくつかのブロックに分かれていて、ここは英国ローズガーデン。今は時期じゃないから残念ながらバラは咲いていません。
The park is divided into several blocks, and this is the English Rose Garden. Unfortunately, the roses are not in bloom because it is not the right time of year.
気温は低いが日差しが強くて、歩いていると暑いくらいに感じられた。
The temperature was low but the sun was strong and it felt hot as we walked around.
ここからは横浜港の眺めが良い。
There is a nice view of Yokohama Harbor from here.
その一角にあるガンダムドック。動くガンダムは健在のようだ。
The Gundam dock is located in one of the corners. The moving Gundam seems to be alive and well.
今年の3月末で公開終了らしいので見たい方はお早めに！
Apparently, it will be closed to the public at the end of March this year, so if you want to see it, be quick!
公園の向かいにある外人墓地
Yokohama Foreign General Cemetery across from the park.
こなつには興味無さそうな場所だね。こうしているうちにママの治療が終わり、合流して場所を移動。
This place doesn’t seem to interest Konatsu. Meanwhile, my wife’s treatment was finished, and we joined her and moved to a new location.
ここは山下公園に隣接する駐車場。そして、その目の前にあるのが､､､
This is a parking lot adjacent to Yamashita Park. And right in front of it is…
レストラン「スカンディア」だ。今日はここでランチ！
is the restaurant “Scandia”. Lunch here today!
行ってみたら1Fの軽食の方は満席で何人か待っていたので、じゃあ2Fに行ってしっかり食べちゃいましょう！ ということで､､､
When we got there, the first floor restaurant was full and there were a few people waiting, so let’s go to the second floor and have a good meal! So…
こっちは一組しかお客が居なかった。
There was only one customer here.
結局、満腹になるほど食べてしまいました(笑)
In the end, we ate so much that we were full, lol.
もう夕飯は食べられない！と言いながらもまだメニューを見ているママ｡｡｡
I don’t even need dinner tonight! she said. But my wife is still looking at the menu….
たまには街中に出かけてみるのも良いもんだ。
It’s good to go out in the city once in a while.
