Oita during a typhoon

September 20, a casual drive from Saiki to Oita City. We made it ultimately, but had to stay for another night as all train connections were cancelled. Departing on the the following day, we got to travel along the same lines with the typhoon. Here are some photos from the area.


Water flowing out of a manhole. Usually it's the other way around.

Well watered rice fields alongside the road.

While the residents were away, a new tenant flooded in.

Lower part of a road blocked by water.

Approaching a passage with free of charge car wash.

More flooded road.

Had to make a u-turn here and find an alternative route.
