Observing the eclipse of the sun from Aku-seki island.

There was a total eclipse of the sun the day before yesterday in Japan. Many Japanese traveled to the southern islands to observe this phenomenon, because it has been 46 years since the last eclipse of the sun.

Some Japanese paid about 3500 dollars a person, and traveled to Aku-seki island. They would have observed the eclipse there.

That day's scenes.

Aku-seki island received the direct hit of rainstorm! And a Tornado also hit!
I could have died when I saw these pictures.

They paid a lot of money, but they had to take refuge from there instead of observing the eclipse.
They should have bought a new television, and should have watched the eclipse at their home.
