Kagoshima

Kagoshima  is south of Japan, as I said yesterday there is also an active volcano there
To go there you take a ferry with this angry little man :-)
And there we are: Sakurajima, the volcano!!
What I like there, is that there is an onsen for the feet :-),
I can stay there for hours!!!
But there is also a lava path, from an old eruption
there you can find these perfect stones from the volcano. With that you can make your feet very nice :-)
and these are ashes from the volcano, actually even in the city there are ashes falling all the time, so the streets are dark
old lava formation
and beautiful weather! Welcome back to the south:-)
and that's a kind of eruption, and quite big actually (but still no lava, hum….)
a nice view from the path
a beautiful sunset
and a volcano with changing colors depending of the time of the day
The first time we went there it was 40 degrees and difficult to visit, today the temperature was just perfect!
Very nice :-)
On the way back some explanation on the train, I let you admire :-)
