View from the 17th floor of our hotel in Hiroshima..
While in Hiroshima we rode a "Trolly Car" or "Cable Car", bus on an electric cable. Our goal was to ride every mode of transportation for Juda's sake as he loves to travel and is quite an easy traveler. He would always ask us in sign what was next....plane, bus, train, boat...he stayed ready.
From the looks of these guys you would have thought they used their own wings to fly to the mainland. Think how I must have felt, he hehe.
This picture of Tomo is an optical illusion. He is NOT that tall, growing yes, but not THAT tall.....Tomo was delighted to rest his weary body after the flight from Okinawa to Hiroshima. This was his traveling attire due to him socking his pull up and shorts just moments before boarding the plane with no time to do anything other than get him out of wet into dry bottoms. I'm sure we looked liked a bunch of raga muffins boarding and deboarding. Ol' American Woman with 4 Japanese kiddos, 2 of which have Down Syndrome and 1 strapped to the front of her....HHHmmmmm....Not a chance...this culture doesn't even see outside of their blinders or think outside their own box...especially when traveling. Tunnell vision at it's best...Yeah for me....
We enjoyed Indian Curry in this outdoor shopping plaza downtown. It was delicious "oishi".
Sadako Memorial. The young girl who died after the war from Leukemia. Bethany read her book "Sadako and the 1000 paper cranes". She believed she would live if she folded 1000 paper cranes. This is a memorial for her and since her death, school children all over Japan come to Hiroshima and place their 1000 paper cranes here for safe keeping.
The Bomb Dome. One of the only structures in Hiroshima that survived the Atomic Bomb.
More 1000 paper crane demonstrations.
