Hiroshima








I spent last weekend with my friend Linda and her husband in Hiroshima. Linda is the VA Rep on mainland Japan. We had a great time. We spent the day Saturday going to the Peace Park, A-bomb Dome, Museum, Hiroshima Castle and to Shukkeien garden. Hiroshima is a huge city! It is very hard to believe that the city was leveled about 64 years ago! The shell of the building in this post is called the A-bomb dome, which is the only partial building that was remaining after the bomb. As you can tell from the pictures there was a slow steady rain all day!
