Nagasaki Sasebo, Miura Wharf International Terminal It is the Roux boat pier. It is decorated to entertain tourists from overseas. Goldfish lanterns are summer in Japan. Summer in Japan is a goldfish scoop at festivals I think most Japan people have experienced it. The scooped goldfish was taken home and kept at home. Recently, in the summer, I have often seen this goldfish lantern decoration. What do foreigners think? I like the Roux ship and often go to see the ship, but I wonder if there are any foreigners who stop at this goldfish eye. It's very cute, so I hope you take a picture of it as a memory of your trip. I went to see the boat, but my eyes met with this goldfish, so I couldn't help but take a picture. A fateful meeting? I wonder. It was a summer decoration in Japan.
