Trip to Aso

Today, I took several early morning trains to get to Aso. After about three hours of travel I arrived in Aso. While there I saw snow for the first time in about 2 months. I was nice to see, for those of you that live in Canada I am sure you will not be thrilled about my snow comment.
I took a bus up the Mountain Aso which is actually an active volcano. Below are some pictures of the drive up the mountain and the actual mountain.

When I arrived back in Beppu, I found a hot spring fountain that is open to anyone.
