こんにちは！Atsushiです。
今日の天気は晴れ。
気温は26℃、暑いです。
他の地域では雨が強く降っているようです。

今日は都道府県シリーズ4つ目を話します。
今日は岩手県について、です。
岩手県は青森県の南、秋田県の東にあります。


大きさ、面積は、15,000km2
人口は、約1,190,000人

県の木　ナンブアカマツ
県の花　キリ
県の鳥　キジ

有名なご当地グルメは、(ご当地はその地域だけの、という意味です)

盛岡じゃじゃ麺です。これは、『白龍』というお店の人が戦前に、昔の満州（今の中国）で食べたものをもとに作ったようです。

そして、盛岡冷麺です。これは、朝鮮半島から日本に移住した人が盛岡で冷麺の販売をはじめたことがはじまりなようです。


最後にわんこそばです。
岩手では昔は米より蕎麦の栽培が盛んでした。
ですが、蕎麦は茹でなければならず一度にたくさん茹でる事もできません。そこで、何回にも分けて少しずつの蕎麦を出しておかわりしてもらう事で、そばを出す時間を短くしたようです。たくさんの蕎麦をゆで続けて何回にも分けて出すことで、みんながお腹一杯になるまで食べる事ができるのが「わんこそば」だそうです。


観光で有名なのは、
中尊寺金色堂(ちゅうそんじこんじきどう)ですかね。
お寺ですね。仏教思想の影響で中尊寺の庭は、極楽浄土をあらわしている、ともいわれています。
私も行ったことはありませんが、学校の歴史の授業で何度も聞いたことがあります。
これがある地域は世界遺産にもなっています。


個人的に興味があるのは、わんこそば、ですね。
そばが大好きなので、どれぐらい食べれるか、挑戦してみたいです。


ということで、今回も最後まで聞いていただき、ありがとうございます！

ではまた！

27 岩手県について(47都道府県シリーズ)

In this story, an aeroplane named Seven is using a secret energy source. But the assistant engineer might know what it is. 
This is Part 3 of 5. 

It was 12:00pm and Seven was playing cards with Zack the pilot in their hangar.
 
Seven picked up a few cards and slammed five down on the table. “Once again, I’m winning, Zack. When will you ever learn? You can’t beat me—Hah!” 

Zack, looking frustrated, said, “Next time I’ll beat you. I’m going to practice online. You’ll see. Next time.” 

Tobee arrived for work and went straight to the office. He noticed the security camera system was blinking, alerting some kind of action needed. Tobee took care of it and turned to exit the office. 

But what was this? In front of him there were several huge barrels labelled ‘7-Up’. Tobee thought that it was illegal to use 7-Up. He understood it was a cheaper fuel source, but he believed it wasn’t worth the risk. Tobee believed in the government’s decision to ban 7-Up as a fuel source. 

Tobee stepped out into the main hangar and confronted Zack. 

“Boss? There are seven giant barrels of 7-Up in the office. Have you been giving it to Seven? You know that’s illegal, right? Why are you doing this? You’re risking your entire business.” 

Zack looked undeniably suspicious and worried. He struggled to speak confidently and said, “Oh that… that’s left over from my son’s 14th birthday party last week. Want some?” 

Tobee said, “Uh… okay. But… I’m a bit… hurt that you didn’t invite me…” 

Zack laughed nervously. “Yes… I only just invited family and friends… Sorry, Tobee. Maybe next time. Uhh, feel free to take some home if you want.” 

As Tobee left the main hangar, Seven whispered to Zack, “Phew, that was a close one. Thankfully he bought it.” 

Tobee didn’t believe Zack’s improvised story, but he tried to play along. He didn’t want Zack catching onto him. Tobee thought that he’d discover the truth for himself.
