#Roadtrip A fresh photo taken on November 4th! I went to see the sea of ​​clouds at Daikanbo in Aso♪ The sea of ​​clouds in Aso has a big temperature difference between morning and evening, so it is said to be easiest to see in autumn. Now is the time!! The conditions are a temperature difference between morning and evening, humidity, and rain the day before, but even if all of these conditions are met, it may not appear. The conditions on the day I went were as follows. ◾️Time when I saw the sea of ​​clouds: around 7am⭐︎Weather: sunny⭐︎Temperature: 8 degrees⭐︎Humidity: 95%⭐︎Maximum temperature of the day: 22 degreesTemperature difference: 14 degrees◾️Heavy rain two days ago◾️I could see the morning mist from the flat ground of the hotel near Aso Station where I was staying! It seems that many people predicted that the sea of ​​clouds would appear the next day due to the heavy rain two days ago, but the temperature rose due to the rain, and the high temperature in the morning meant that the sea of ​​clouds did not appear. It seems that the sea of ​​clouds appears depending on luck, but please refer to the conditions on the day I went ♪ The driving course to Daikanbo is also scenic and amazing. 📍Daikanbo Observatory 2090-8 Yamada, Aso City, Kumamoto Prefecture, 869-2313 8 hours: 24 hours Points to see the sea of ​​clouds 📝The sea of ​​clouds is from 6:30 to around 8:00, so try to reach the summit by then 📝If you want to see the sunrise, arrive by around 6:00 📝Check the temperature difference between morning and evening 📝Stay at a hotel near Daikanbo (so you can go as soon as the morning mist appears) I stayed at Fairfield Aso on the Aso Station side. 🚗A hotel about 20 minutes by car to the summit. #100TravelStyle #KumamotoTourism #DaikanboObservatory
