ANOTHER SOBERING REMINDER

 
We woke up this morning to clouds but no rain. First thing on the agenda was Miyajima Island and its beautiful “floating” 0-Tori Gate. The tide was out so we were able to see it up close. 






The Itsukushima Shrine complex is nearby.

A 45 minute ferry ride took us to the Peace Garden where we were able to reflect on the events of 6 August 1945, the day the A-bomb was dropped on Hiroshima.
