Isamu Nagata (42 years old),
who lives in Okinawa by chance,
visited Christmas Island in the Indian Ocean
for the second time in December 2005 for a TV interview.  

The dark and tanned face is perfect
for a man who lives by the sea.

Lucky I was able to take a trip with him get on board the plane with excitement
for the red crab that I haven't seen yet.

(TBS TV broadcast on February 4, 2006)

Christmas Island is famous for the red crab
and the whale shark, the largest sea king on earth.

Speaking of crabs,
I think they live near the sea or in the river.

The crabs on this Island live on land. Due to spawning, it seems that the road will turn red when traveling to the coast.
I came to see it.

Denpasar Airport in Bali.

There are only three Japanese people in the airport
waiting area for Christmas Island, one more with us.

This line will disappear at the end of January.
Only about 30 passengers are on board once a week.

Twice From February, it will be via Japan-Singapore.  

 

I Me "Did you take a picture of the red crab spawning?"

Him "Eh, I took a picture on the beach during the spawning season in December."

Me "How was it?"

Him "That's amazing, in one word."

Me "Isn't it bad in January?"

Him "No,
there are many crabs that haven't spawned yet."

Me "What kind of program is it?"

Him "Discover the world of mystery!"

Me "Eh! Were you an underwater cameraman at that time?"
