Departing Kagoshima, Sylph lies “placidly on the
Bay's mirror smooth waters, only occasionally disturbed by the wake of a passing
ship”:
 Approaching Sato Ne, “Sylph hummed along
at close to seven knots”:
:
 Alongside Sato Ne:
 Local children, “very curious and very friendly”:
 “C U”
 “perhaps a little precocious”:
 The cemetery, “strategically
placed to overlook the gardens and the township”:
  Hawks on the beach:
 “Its streets are narrow and winding, lined mostly
with walls made of round stones piled neatly on top of one
another”:
  “There is an interesting mix of dilapidation”:  “and new construction”:
 “a small hill, which is
supposedly the ruins of an old castle”:
 “behind the town where
the hillsides are terraced”:
 “with what I assumed
were rice paddies”:
 A wild flower, I wonder what?:
 “I looked up and saw the turbine of a wind generator poking above the tree tops”:  “The path led up around behind the generator”:  “situated on a narrow isthmus formed by two deeply indented bays”:  The wind turbine from below, “I was surprised to realise that I had climbed so
high”:
:
 “a tray beside the roadside”:  The gift, “I do not know what I am going to do with it all”:
