葛飾を行く（寅さんのお膝元）

ちわ。
今回紹介するのは、やっぱりオレの近所葛飾区にある柴又だよん。知ってのとおり「男はつらいよ」のロケ地。男の中の男、寅さんのお膝元。とか言って実は一つも男はつらいよなど見たこともないのだけれども。へへへ。
バンクーバーで出会った友達らと東京でも数少ない浅草みたいなコテコテの観光場所に行ってみることにしました。集合場所は柴又駅前で、家も近いしバイクで行くのが好都合と思って行ってみたら、これがまた大失敗で、駅前は完全に歩行者専用。バイクなど通れる場所は全くない、涙。なんとかパチンコ屋にバイクとめて駅に急ぐ。やっと駅について、合流するなり「アイスキャンディーをおごれ！」とぬかす良きお友達らと合流。
駅前にはバッチリ寅さん像が立っています。渥美清よりかっこいい気がします。んで、帝釈天神社に行って、帝釈天の怪しげな絵を見つけました。
実はあんまり柴又に期待をしていなかったんだけど、行ってみたらとってもいいところだよ。なんかのんびりしたい時にフラフラっと行ってみるといいかも。
みんないつでも俺を訪ねてきておくれ。そしたら葛飾名所をいっぱい案内しますよー。
んじゃ。

Hey, what's up, shawty!
This time, where I'm ganna introduce is also my neighbor called Shibamata, the location of the movie "Otokowa tsuraiyo". You know, it's the neighbor of Torasan, the real man among men, as everybody know.
Well, honestly, I've never seen even a story of the series though. lol
Shibamata is located in Katsushika ward where I settle down now, as all of you guys have already known.
My friends I met in Vancouver and I planed going sightseeing there, since it's once of a few real sightseeing place in Tokyo, like Asakusa. Despite the meeting place, Shibamata station, I went there by my motorcycle, since I thought it's more convenient. Yet it was the hell mistake. Shibamata is totally not a place I can park my motorcycle, because there were no streets bike can cross. Damn it.
I ended up parking at a Pachinko store, arrived at the station and met my dear friends who asked me to treat Ice candy as soon as I met them. Crap!
There was a Torasan's statue in front of the station. I thought it looked much better than real Kiyoshi Atsumi. We hang out the neighbor and went to Taisyakuten shrine. We found a drawing of Taisyakuten, a god of ... well, I don't really know. Sorry.
Honestly I didn't expected a lot at first, however I really enjoyed there. You can also pick something to eat on the street. I really recomend spending some time here, when you want to feel relaxed.
You can come visite me anytime 'Nd I'll take you guys sightseeing places in Katsushika.
