Sakurajima (volcano) from Kagoshima Port |
I visited a very nice school here to give speaking tests to some very nervous children taking their Cambridge Young Learners exams. Although they were nervous, we did have a lot of fun.
When I had a spare moment, I walked around the historic part of the town and found the site of the old castle, as well as a couple of shrines and statues. I found out about the Namamugi Incident & the subsequent Anglo-Satsuma War in 1863...you know I like my history?!
I also managed to pop down to the port & catch a glimpse of Sakurajima. Fortunately, it was not erupting!
See you all soon :)
