Day 46 - Magical Miyajima
... a pile. Mandy looked at the phones and we made a comment and laughed, and he smiled with that "mind you own frigging business" look. A little later we were coming back from a quick visit to the quickie mart, and there is this couple getting into a car, she got in the back seat and he got in the front just like a "driver".

Day 138: Hiroshima
... in the museum!
Then, the time to leave Hiroshima. We took a bullet train to Shin-Osaka, then another bullet train to Tokyo. It took only about 4 hours to travel odd 800km. Well done Shinkansen!
