Before leaving Hiroshima on Saturday, we finally made it over to the Peace Memorial Park and A-Bomb Dome.  It was a very moving experience.  The peace park has origami cranes left by visitors.  The A-Bomb Dome is the propped up remains of a building that was located almost directly under the atomic blast.  Since the force was straight down from above, some of the walls were left standing unlike most every other building in the area.
