A Year in Kagoshima, Japan

Cycle cycle cycle

Been going on some amazing rides recently. One of my favorites the other day went almost all through back roads and farm land, out to the beach, up to the rose garden (killer hill climb), down to the Taco restaurant for dinner, and back into Kanoya. Perfect ride!

Endless green.

Beach shrine


Mil stops for water and two runners pass us up the hill. Ouch.


Hilarious taco woman. She literally did not stop talking the whole time we were there.

My other recent favorite ride was one Mil and I went on in the dark (by accident) the other night. We cycled out of town in the direction of Aira Sanryo, a famous tomb and shrine of sorts near here. The streets were deserted, the stars were out, and the only light came from the lone vending machines dotting the rice paddies. No pictures of that one, but I want to remember it. Especially because the temperature was perfect- cool and fresh (something that is quickly slipping away here.) 

Many more rides to come!
