A TRIP TO KAGOSHIMA. 鹿児島の旅。

We went to Kagoshima and Miyazaki for 3 days.
It takes about 2 hours to go to Kagoshima by airplane.


We could see Mt.Fuji clearly from the plane.




We could see Mt.Fuji when we came back to Tokyo.



The beauty of flaming sunset is indescribable.


Arriving at Kagoshima,we went to Sengan-en garden.



The main gate of Sengan-en garden.



A stone gaslight lantern. 



A stone lantern with a lion statue.


The flags of former feudal lord's emblems.



Sakura-jima island with a volcano.


We stayed a hotel located at Ibusuki city.


The hotel's garden and Kinko-wan bay.


One of the hotel's room where we stayed.



There was a Japanese room too.



Next day,there were heavy rain and strong winds in the morning. 
We could see carp pennants were swimming in the air by Kinko-wan bay.

    You shots are very fabulous especially the aerial view of Mount Fuji. Not everyone could be so fortunate like you to get the photographs at beautiful sunset.

    Again, you slept in a luxurious hotel room that overlooked the panoramic ocean view. It was like heavens.

    Where is your next vacation Minoru-san?

    強風で鯉のぼりが元気に泳いでますね。南の鹿児島となると同じ九州でも余震など地震の影響は皆無のようですし、往復の富士山の眺めもふくめ、いい旅でよかったですね。いつもながらの豪華なホテルも素敵です。

    こんにちわ。鹿児島までの旅２時間で飛んで行けるのですね。飛行機から見えた富士山、一瞬奥村土牛の富士山を思い浮かべました。真っ赤な夕焼けに映る富士のシルエット素晴らしいです。そろそろブログに戻ります。また訪問させて頂きます！
