Kamoike lies over the sea; Sakurajima lies over the other side of the sea. Both glare at one another..not touching but just staring. The wind of change (sounds familiar huh....a song by the Scorpions) blew ashes from Sakurajima's open wide mouth to this area years ago and today, Kamoike is as fertile as Sakurajima's surrounding area. Sakurajima is one of the most active volcano in Japan. It often erupted years ago and today, you can still see smoke and sometimes ashes splutting out from its mouth. Thanks to this beauty, Kagoshima is wellknown as the PRODUCER of WORLD's BIGGEST radish and SMALLEST orange. We took the opportunity to do gardening (with permission of course) at the Kamoike Fish Hatchery and at time of writing, we had eaten most of the vegetables. Mind you, we even grew Kangkung! Many got benefits from this simple but meaningful venture. We exercised our biceps and triceps; kids learned hands-on gardening and not just by reading; friends got to see real kangkung; fertile soils were not wasted; but most importantly, everyone especially the kids can touch the soil and appreciate environment, a precious gift from the Almighty! ITADAKIMASU!
that reminds me of my younger days at the estates ..... you turn around and all you can see is green but now you turn around you see colorful ... what???? buildings, buses, cars and people .. hahaha
