Hato Bus at Tokyo Memory on Father 2

TANAKA Akio

Hato Bus is the sight seeing bus at Tokyo central area. Hato means pigeon in English, that is the symbol of peace. The bus go around the famous places in Tokyo. I ever rode on with my father for him who were working at the central part of Tokyo in his young age. He was a modern young man at that time. He played mandolin and enjoyed surfing. He had lived at Kyobashi and Shinagawa, where the most animates and prosperous parts of Tokyo. His moving was done by bicycle. Oh he went to Kamakura's seashore and came back to Tokyo in one day. Returning to Tokyo area, the sun already sank down and he was sometimes checked up by the policeman, "Where do you go?". He replied, "I will come back to Tokyo!" The policeman said, "Good luck!" What Fine old days it were!
