View of Sakurajima
Brass band playing at our departure
The smoke was not visible from the top
Dock area is a landfill
The Brass Band
Ferry landing
Young well-wisher with his flag
Having fun
With his sister
The locals waving many flags
Something to do for the locals
A string of kites flew high
Pier side building
A few might be restrooms
An area used for running and biking
Shoreline buildings
Part of downtown
Looking for spewing ash
You can see some of the light smoke
Well-behaved kids
Still playing as we left
He likes flags
Pier park and garden
You can see the ash smoking
Shore building
Constant haze in the sky
Hawk or eagle?
We guess it is a type of golden eagle
Or perhaps a fish eagle
Modern skyscrapers
Pushing away from the pier
Wind generators on the hill tops
Sea wall
Sakurajima Volcano
The Amsterdam was the only ship in port today
Nice place to visit
The real sail away was held on deck three
A ferris wheel was also in Kagoshima
Densely populated
Modern city
Very clean city
Hillsides full of homes
No homes up here
Desolate volcanic field
North peak
Elevation – 3665 feet
Resorts and hotels on the shoreline
Many hot sand beaches
Vacation spot for the Japanese
A few beaches
Not a busy harbor for ships
No trees grow up high
Could be the desert
Looking for dolphins
Mt. Kaimon through the haze
Ferry
Sun going down by 6:04pm
Slipping behind the hills
This could be a pyramid in Egypt
Good sunset
Deep orange hue to the sky
Color is caused by the ash in the air
Mt.Kaimon – 3032 feet
There is goes
Will be dark soon
Water lights up
All alone on the aft deck
Great view
End of the day
Fading light
Some more wind generators
Dusk
Getting towards the end of the peninsula
Hydro-foil moves swiftly
Last scene from Kagoshima
