EPSON AQUA PARK

EPSON AQUA PARK (Shinagawa) re-opens.

 Epson Aqua Park Shinagawa is a new urban entertainment facility that transcends the category of aquarium.  This 'aqua park' is essentially a renovated version of the old Epson Aqua Stadium. The highlight is the dolphin performance incorporating lighting and sound effects that change from day to night, and a cylindrical water curtain that offers visitors a 360-degree view of the dynamic show. Other must-see zones include Aqua Jungle, comprising the facility’s first display of reptiles and freshwater fish; Jellyfish Ramble, designed to provide a therapeutic effect; and the outdoor Friendly Square, where visitors get to play with sea lions, fur seals, and penguins. Experience a whole new world of entertainment fusing sound, lighting, and images with marine creatures. source

 5 years have passed since Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant accident. I have visited various places of Japan to see the health consequence of the accident.
 Fortunately I have never found any impacts by the nuclear power plant accident among Japanese creatures. As far as I know, nobody has health problem which is caused by the accident in Japan.
 Our Prime Minister Abe assures that "The situation is under control. The influence of the contaminated water is completely blocked within Fukushima. There are no health-related problems until now and there will never be health problems." He also said that "Tokyo is 250 kilometers away from Fukushima, and the kind of danger that you imagine does not exist in Tokyo. Tokyo is a very safe city."
 As PM Abe said, Tokyo is very far away from Fukushima, people in Tokyo have no concern about the nuclear power plant accident. People in Tokyo have already forgotten the accident, because they think radioactive materials cannot reach there.
 We know there is no problem for childbirth and child rearing in Tokyo. So people in Tokyo are living without any concern about the nuclear power plant accident.
 I continue to visit various places in Japan to see the effects of the accident, because I can meet various creatures which are more sensitive to radioactive materials from the environment. It is important to see their health for our safety.

Ishiuchi Maruyama Ski and Snowboard resort

About Niigata prefecture

 Niigata is one of the heaviest snow fall areas in Japan. It is a powder snow heaven where snowfall reaches up to an adult’s waist height during the high winter season. Many of the ski slopes are easily accessible from the train stations and highway interchanges, and are easy to get to from Tokyo. Niigata is known for its rich harvest of rice, and “Koshihikari from Uonuma” is reputed nationwide. There are many old sake breweries, producing brand sake that is only available locally. The Echigo-Yuzawa station features a shop that sells some 90 different types of sake. ( source )

 Though Niigata prefecture is next to Fukushima prefecture, surrounding high mountains and the direction of the wind prevent it from radioactive materials. So Niigata prefecture is safe as same as Tokyo and people in Niigata have no concern about the nuclear power plant accident. People in Niigata prefecture have already forgotten the accident, because it is very far away from Fukushima and radioactive materials cannot reach there.
 We know there is no problem for childbirth and child rearing in Niigata. So people in Niigata are living without any concern about the accident.
