I arrived in Japan safely yesterday. It is very nice here. Very clean. And not that I did not enjoy them in the other Asian countries, but it is refreshing to get away from the squatter toilets. lol. I am at this internet cafe not far from our port. Yesterday we just wandered around town, shopped a bit. (did not buy anything because it is super expensive here) went to a nice dinner. It is kinda hard for vegetarians here, but I have been getting by. Today we went to Hiroshima. Saw some sights and went to the museum. It was very hard to see all the stuff there. Very imformative and depressing. It was a good thing to go to though. It really opens your eyes. We also stopped by this garden before we headed back, so I included some pics of that for you. Tomorrow we are heading to Kyoto and then to Osaka, so I will have more stories after that!!
