On Wednesday our group went down to Cape Cod to meet with Mr. Weeks who has been lobstering for a long time. He told us how the lobster trap works and explained the process of capturing lobsters. We went on his boat to experience the actual route he used to do lobstering. The second pic shows the bridge we saw on the way to and back. The weather changed in a short period of time which remind me to give more respect to the lobstermen. They need to go out regardless of the extreme weather. Then we went to a local lobster retail market, we get a better understanding about the lobster market and the reason of prices change in time.
On Thursday we went to Maine. We further explore the lobstering process and some real interesting facts like the relationship between lobstermen. Then we went to Maine aquarium to see some rare lobsters. The color of lobsters is fascinating to me. Thanks to a lot of people putting together the trip and give us such a amazing experience, we really appreciate this. :)
