Day 9 - Kagoshima (Furusato Onsen)

I thought it was time for a little relaxing so all we did today was:

- Sit in trains for 6 hours grand total
- Enjoy a dip in the Furusato Onsen
- Eat some Shabu Shabu at the Ichi Ni San restaurant near the Kagoshima train station

The active vulcano here is Sakurajima:

Furusato Onsen offers you an outdoor onsen experience (for those who don't know what an onsen is: it's a hot bath that mostly has it's own hot water source, if not then it's a fake onsen). The Furusato Onsen is mixed bath at a shrine, so this means that everyone has to wear a yukata when they enter (else you might stir and upset the dragon god that lives there).
