若田光一 WAKATA Koichi @Astro_Wakata Good morning. Just passed over Patagonia in South America.

The view of glaciers, snow, and clouds is spectacular even from space. Am I the only one who thinks it looks like cake cream that looks so delicious?

おはようございます。先程南米パタゴニア上空を通過しました。氷河、雪、雲が織りなす絶景は宇宙から見ても素晴らしいです。とても美味しそうなケーキのクリームのように見えてしまうのは私だけでしょうか。
