October 10th is "Health Sports Day". There was an athletic meet when I was a kid, but it's just a holiday when I grow up. There is nothing special to do ...

The recommended spot for such people is the "Sunshine Aquarium" in Ikebukuro, Tokyo. Here you can see the animals "exercising" after the athletic meet season.

At the "Majikawa Penguins Garden" (opening hours 10 am to 4:30 pm, until March 5, 2017), which has been open to the public since September in the rooftop area of the same building, African penguins are hung overhead. Races are held every day. The spectators are desperately cheering for the penguins who are turning around the corners!


In addition, the Great White Pelican, who lives in the same area, also walks lightly in front of visitors with "Pelican Petapeta Walking". It seems that the lack of exercise has been resolved.


In addition, small-clawed otters also participated in the "Kawauso and Kotoko Greeting" and irregular walk times. Inspired by the animals you see up close, you might want to start running.


The scheduled time for each event is as follows. Business hours in October are from 10:00 to 20:00 (November to March is from 10:00 to 18:00). Admission is required for viewing.

・ Penguins Toddler Parade: 10: 45/15: 15 ・ Pelican Petapeta Walking: 11: 20/15: 50 ・ Otters and Kotoko Greetings: 13:15
