Kagoshima

The alarm went off in many places at 8;00, but nobody would get up. We got up at 8;30 after all. Although we had a good night's rest, we overslept and had to go to eat breakfast in the hurry. Breakfast is Japanese food and delisious, too. We didn't talk so much because we have been difficult to get up since we were child. I thought they were unchange and same when they were child. I was glad.

After we ate breakfast, we got ready. We made up for an hour. When we left our room, I felt sad. Although I stayed only overnight, I made many memories in this room. This room is comfortable, I like this room.

We decided to go to Kagoshima aquarium last night, so we went to Kagoshima aquarium. Kagoshima aquarium is near the hotel, so we arrived there soon. When we went to an entrance of Kagoshima aquarium, Kagoshima aquarium opened. It was good timing. There was a big shark called Jinbei zame and there were many kinds of fish in a big water plant. Jinbei zame was so big that I was surprised. I looked jinbei zame for a while. I could watch jinbei zame eating fish bait. Contrary to general belief, jinbei zame's fishbait was small, but jinbei zame's mouth was so big. An adult will be able to enter jinbei zame's mouth. To my surprise, jinbei zame that was in a big water plant was a chiled. How big are adult jinbei zame. We were excited and looked at a big water plant for a while. I felt mysterious and thought how wonderful to swim in water for a long time. Then I found a peculiar fish. I said "What's that?" My friend was also surprised and laughted by it and said "Is that a fish? How slender it is!" The creature like a fish was slender and look like a big earthworm. The creature swam oddly. I have never looked such a creature. I was interested in it and wanted to know it's name and This creature is whether fish or not, but I didn't know anything about it. Then we watched many creatures which live in water. I thought there were many creatures that I don't know in the earth. I thought medusan is bautiful for the fast time. They swam in blue water elegantly. A big clib was fearful, but looks delicious. I watched a conger called chinanago. It didn't swim and it was coming up in the sand. It is white and very very slender. I couldn't believe it is a conger. Then I found a model of adult jinbei zame. It was so big that I and friends were surprised. All of us could enter jinbei zame's mouth together easly. We took a picture in jinbei zame's mouth. I want to watch adult jinbei zame in the real. Then we watched a sea turtle's baby. Although a sea turtles are bug, baby was small and cute. I felt pouwer of life. Then I touched a starfish but other friends would not touch a starfish. I took a picture with a starfish. I also touched a sea cucumber. It was black and soft. I was called namako by some people so I felt close to it. Touching a starfish and a sea cucumber was good experience. Thank you a starfish and a sea cucumber. A starfish didn't move at all, so I worried if a starfish was living. It is said "A starfish move very slowly. Although you put a starfish upside down, they can recover. It will took long time to recover." on a sign. "Funny!" everyone said and laughed at it. Then we watched the show of a sea otter. They were so cute and good at swim. A show of a sea otter was interesting. We watched a show of dolphin, too. Many people came to watzh a show of dolphin. Dolphins were so big and they swam fast. Why they understand what human say? They were so clever. A show of dolphin was interesting, too. After a show of dolphin, we went to a souvenir shop. There were many souvenirs of Kagoshima aquarium in souvenir shop. A key ring of dolphin and a sea toter were so cute. We were excited. I bought some key rings. My friends bought many souvenirs in the shop, too.

After we left Kagoshima aquarium, we went to eat lunch. We wanted to eat Kurobuta tonkatsu. So we went to a restaurant that making food of Kagoshima. I ordered a food like a ochazuke which was Kagoshima's food and called Keikadon. I have never eaten and heard, so I worryed if I like it. Other friends ordered a ramen and kurobuta and so on. Every foods were rare food so we were bubbling. Keikadon was delicious and flavor was like a ochazuke. Kurobuta tonkatsu is delisious! I have never eaten such a tonkatsu. This kurobuta tonkatsu have a lot of collagen. We can't eat such a tonkatsu in Kumamoto. Then we ate mango ice cream. We were full and satisfied.

We went sightseeing and bought souvenir. We bought many souvenirs because there are many coted products in Kagoshima. I bought a caramel which taste is a sweet potato. It must be delicious, and a sweet potato pie and a sweet potato talto. I like a sweet potato so I bought many food which tatse is a sweet potato. I bought cookies which shape is Saigou Takamori. Saigou Takamori is from Kagoshima and he is famous as one of people who made Japanese history. We watched his bronze statue in many place of Kagoshima. Saigou Takamori is respected and popular by many people in Kagoshima. My friend bought a clear distilled liquor which called shouchu in Japanese. Kagoshima is famous for shouchu so there were many kinds of shouchu. It is difficult for my friend to decide what kind of shouchu she buy. It took 30 minutes to decide what shouchu she buy. All of us were satisfied with shopping so we returned to Kumamoto. I like Kumamoto but I wanted to stay more in Kagoshima.

We dropped in rest station again. I bought shoronpou again. I love syoronpou. Except for driver, everyone slept in car. When we dropped in rest station second time, driver Riho said "I felt sleep and I want to sleep, too" We were surprised and felt danger so. I bought Minmindaha which is likes a kind of drug to keep awake for Riho. We talked where we travel next time. We are going to travel again.

When we returned to Kumamoto, we were tired but also glad. I thought Kagoshima was good place but also Kumamoto was good place. When I say to my friends good bye, I felt very sad, but we promissed we travel together again.

I had a good time with my best friends for two days. I experienced many things I have never done and watched many things I have never seen and ate many foods I have never eaten. Traveling was good thing. I could make many memoris with best friends. I will never forget this experiences and memories. If I and my friends have free time, I want to travel again!
