そうです、これはあの有名なＴｏｍ Ｃｒｕｉｓｅ 映画のラスト・サムライを元にしている日本のラストサムライのたてだそうです。大きいですけど写真はあまりよくないです。。。それと３年前に噴火した鹿児島の港の前にある火山です、未だにけむりが出ていますのでまたいつ噴火するのは分からないけどちょっと考えちゃうね。前回は町中３～４ｃｍの誇りがたまったので本当に大変でした。最後の写真は説明しなくってもいいかなーさくらはどんどんきれいになってきます、そしてあるあらしが来て全部無くなったら本当の春ですね。一週間もてば嬉しいです！So check out the statue of the actual caracter that the movie " The LAst Samurai" was made over! It is really big, and it is standing there in the city of Kagoshima. Then across from the harbor there is a live ulcano just kind of sitting there in the horizon, smoking! 3 years ago it blew up and left the whole city in a blanket of ash deep as 3 or 4 cm...Man people must have been whishing for rain during that time? then my Sakura tree is really coming along well, soon it will be in full blossom and then we are gonna have a BBQ to celebrate the coming of spring. It is tradition in Japan to go out and do the annual Hanami/ freely translated to flower watching. Actually it is mainly just an excuse to get hammered!!! But I guess that if you are gonna get hammered then doing it under a beautiful tree is as good a place as any!
