Robert Gorter participated in an one-day trip to an area near to Osaka where two gulf streams from two different oceans come together and where by the very strong currents the water turns into powerful vertexes. Only skilled captains on powerful boats can sail these areas.
Robert Gorter caught on the boat to the strong whirlpools and during the day with this bright and communicative medical student who was at Robert Gorter’s side all day.
Also, there are many islands which are all inter-connected by bridges, as seen here. Notice the whirlpool effect of the two currents bumping into each other.
