毎週、早朝に東京駅に向かう生活も、はや１年。 山形に向かって変化する車窓の風景も魅力だけれど、朝の丸の内の静寂も気に入ってます。 早い便に乗る時は、６時台なので丸の内はほんとうに静か。 うるさい看板もなく、ゆったりとビルが建っているので、光がたっぷり。 国の中心地はおおらかです。 それにしても自宅から東京駅に向かうタクシー、運転手さんによってこんなにも所要時間が違うものでしょうか。最速レコードは９分ちょっと。もちろん奇跡の青信号＆スピード速めの運転だけれど、なによりも巧かったのは車線変更と先の交通状況の読み具合。プロ中のプロでした。ちなみに最遅は２５分。全ての判断が鈍行。さすがに一本乗り遅れる事に。 山形新幹線、一本遅れるとほぼ１時間待ち。今度は家に戻って寝なおします。 |
