Sakurajima

I'm now in the city of Kagoshima. My hotel has a great view of the active volcano, Sakurajima.
Yes that is smoke rising from the volcano as it is quite active.

  1. Hahaha, just hope it doesn’t go all Vesuvius on you - or is it more of a ‘relaxed’ Hawaiian style volcano?

    1. It's more Yellowstone. Sakurajima is the active peak in the centre of a supervolcano. The caldera is the bay. It quite often let's of steam. Last major eruption back in the early 1900s converted Sakurajima from an island to a peninsula.
