It's been a typical day for us, starting early and ready for bed by 9. Since it's still a bit early, I thought I'd do a short post. Our previous stop was one of amazing breath taking beauty.
All of this tremendous beauty was balanced by what happened in this area almost 70 years ago.
It is quite a sobering experience.
In terms of food. Oyster season has just begun here, so ordering is a no-brainer.
The area is also famous for this.
One evening we were wandering around and found a little alley where we enjoyed a fun evening. No English spoken, but who cares…..things got sorted out quite easily.
The pig ear was amazingly prepared.
Anyway, it's time for me to hit the sack.
The Missus says tomorrow is supposed to be an "easy day", but other than the typhoon day, we haven't had one of those yet and I don't think tomorrow will be an exception!
Hope you have a great weekend!

you guys are eating well 🙂
Did you hike up the mountain? It’s a nice view from the top.
Hiroshima of course! BTW I wonder if you and the Missus ever gain weight at all? I have found that as long as you eat until you are just barely satisfied you won’t gain weight. Hard to do surrounded by good food though.
We sure are Kat!
You mean MT Misen? If so yes Hao,
Hey Jeff – We’ve been eating that way for years. I always lose weight when on vacation.
Beautiful and moving.
Gorgeous photos.
I’m craving fried oysters now…and green onions…
Have a safe trip back home!
Hi Ed – It truly was.
Hi CC – They do love their green onions…..
Wow, that is a LOT of green onions on the hiroshimayaki! Or is there something hidden underneath?
Hey Jenne – It seems that they treat scallions like another vegetable here.
we loved our visit to hiroshima. so beautiful but yes, it’s a sobering place to visit.
It truly was Lynnea. To go from Miyajima to Hiroshima…..
