Sun Days Inn Kagoshima

GETTING LOST<br><br>I arrived in Kagoshima, and had a pleasant walk friom the train station to the area where my hotel is located. I had been warned by a tripadvisor.com review that the hotel has a narrow street frontage and is easy to pass by and miss. Then my difficulties began--I realized that every map I had showed south at the top, and that I had gone two blocks in the wrong direction. After correcting for that, my ...

... had a thing for them...this was all in front of her 40 year old daughter....who to be quite frank was aghast at her mother!!! That night Jim sat up talking to a bunch of other travellers and he met his first real life professional clown. She was French and originally a therapist though had concluded that dressing up as a clown was a better way of taking away peoples problems.....apparently Jim has given her an open invite to come and stay with us when we get back!

... Ohma-san did research and had it all planned. First thing I did when we checked into our hotel though was take a shower as I still had a lot sand in my hair and on me from the beach! We met Ohma-san and Iida-san for our dinner appointment and started with a fabulous first dinner which was kuro buta shabu shabu. Kuro Buta (black pig) is a native pig of Kagoshima and their shabu shabu is famous. In Tokyo shabu shabu is beef ...

... awesome onsen on the Sakurajima island with magma heated waters that are supposed to heal cuts and skin problems, improve digestion, and I heard it even makes people taller (unfortunately it didn't work for Matt, he is still only 5'10", or so he claims)!! It was glorious! Matt did do a lot better this time, successfully staying in there for almost an hour. The view is beautiful ...

... gas station on the island. The black pork noodle soup was tasty in the noodle restaurant near the airport. Black pork seemed a speciality of the island.<br><br>The next day, on our way back to Nagoya, we dropped by Kagoshima, where we took some pictures around the Takamori Saigo statue and then headed for Sakurajima Island. Actually it used to be an island, but it's not any more, because the lava from the volcano erruption in 1914 made a way ...

... and although going down was much more enjoyable and quicker, we all fell a lot - and I have bruises to prove it haha I'm so agile. That night we just chilled at this attempt at a hotel(the rooms didnt have washrooms) in the mountains. Then the next day we drove back, stopping at a waterfall along the way. But no trip is complete without a trip to a disease centre. We went to the Minamata Disease Museum and Information Centre. Depressing and yet educational in all ...

... t want to go to the islands anymore and wanted to come with me and stay on the volcano island. Sadly she had already made plans that involved others so after a very late lunch we found ourselves sadly waving good bye to each other as her ferry left its doc. BUGGER! I spent the next few hours walking around the city and in the late afternoon ...
