Hiroshima

Not really Hiroshima but the ‘Bullet Train’ works very well ll over. And the drivers wear proper train driver hats!

An unplanned event was a visit to the baseball. Clearly a big sport in Japan and a great family event on the Friday night.

There were a few north Americans playing. I quite quickly reacquainted myself with the rules and appreciated the skills.

As with the US they like to make a little entertainment in the 7th innings.

I am now a ‘Carps’ fan and have the cap to prove it.

Of course we visited the peace memorial and had a guide to help. It was a stimulating experience, with an explanation of the events and then a visit to the museum to explain and recount events and experiences of the local population.

An historic image of a standing building. Plus a lovely meal.
