Port of Murotsu

Talk of the man in Murotsu Port

 First, we went to the famous port of Murotsu. A man taught us port of Murotsu in detail there.  
 "How many ships do enter port of Murotsu ?", we asked.
 "220 ships are registered.", he taught.
 We thought that a lot of houses could be built instead of 220 ships.

Questions we asked are following.  
Q : "What kind of fish can be caught ?" 
A : "Representative fish are sand eel, crepe, horse-mackerel, mackerel, sardine, and so on."
Q : "How many fishermen are there in Murotsu ?"
A : "There are 150 fishermen in total. There are 15 young fishermen."

Our Impressions :
We visited a lot of places in port of Murotsu, and we were taught a lot of things.
The most impressive thing among them is that one ship costs 20,000,000 yen, and even an engine costs 3,000,000 yen.
We hear that an engine must be replaced every 7 or 8 years.
We were also surprised that about 220 ships enter port of Murotsu.
We visited a lot of places in port of Murotsu together, and had a happy memory.
