(Saturday, 7. June) As mentioned before, we went to see Mt. Sakurajima, which is located in Kagoshima Bay. The weather was kinda misty so both the volcano’s tip and Kagoshima itself when viewed from the mountain weren’t that visible. But up close it was very nice! We took a bus tour around a part of the island (it was a little too late to take the one that goes completely around) with a few stops at notable points of interest. The observatory far up the mountain offered a nice view. The last two pictures also show the thick layer of volcanic ash that covers basically everything on the island. Not only that, the areas near the harbor also had a lot of ash collecting on the ground, from when the wind carries it across the bay. -- source link
