how about a few more pictures before ignoring the internet for the weekend?

I like this picture... it shows how Japanese people move much faster than me. But I'm alright nonetheless.
Here are the peace gates in Hiroshima.
A model of pre-A-bomb Hiroshima found in the Peace memorial museum.
Another model of immediate post A-bomb Hiroshima.
There's the A-bomb dome, preserved within this large, modern and bustling city so as not to forget what this city was like just 61 years ago. Walking around the rest of the city reveals no indication at all that anything ever happened there. It houses over a million people and has all the same shinyness and department stores of any other Japanese (or non Japanese for that matter) city. Amazing.

No trip around Japan is complete without a brother and sister looking cute in front of Miyajima shrine.
I have more pictures of the pretty shrine, the cute deer, and baby shmoo, so just email me if you'd like to see them! (eilmo1@hotmail.com)

No worries, more to come,
