For any old anime diehards, the name of this aquabus is Himiko and it's modeled after the Space Battleship Yamato as seen by the cardboard figures inside. Hiro was kind of embarassed about posing with the cardboards, but I insisted, it's all for my blog!!! Rio took the photo too. Not bad for a 9-year-old. He thought the boat looked like a Nike runner. Can see his point... Anyways, inside was muggy and not that pleasant. I would have preferred a more conventional boat with an open deck. Still it was fun leaving the docks of Toyosu on a boat up the Sumida River to Asakusa.
