A few shots from the road
Alright, time to shut up and post pictures:
-The definitive Eggplant Curse stance on the nuclear issue: It never hurts to not nuke people.
-The Shimonoseki Straits from a distance.
-A misty mountain valley. (This was right after we spent 40 minutes huddling in a parking shelter waiting out a downpour)
-Approaching top of the Aso crater, the landscape becomes decidedly Hokkaido-like (barren, wind-swept and cloudy)
-Glamour shot! With the three active volcanoes of the Aso caldera in the background
-"What? I have to go UP that?" The Hitoyoshi Loop Bridge - all things considered, the gradient wasn't too bad and there was ample shoulder space. (And the whole typhoon rain thing kept the sun off). All in all I've done worse climbs.
If the rain clears up today, we may venture out (it's hard to venture out anywhere when you're in an internet cafe drinking free green tea and corn chowder) and take a picture or two of Sakurajima, which is an active active volcanoe - the kind that supposedly dumps ash on you now and then. Until then, signing off!
