This posting was so long, that I wanted to blog it into two parts. This is the part about our visit to the Hiroshima castle. The weather was wonderful during most of our trip, especially on this day!

| Pretty neat operation that drew lots of Japanese customers |
Jacob wanted to return to Tokyo our last day in Japan for last-minute souvenirs. We went back to some of his favorite shopping places until our legs and feet were tired and sore!

Waiting for our last good meal of the trip!
We miss the wonderful food we had in Japan!
This guy was a "cat man" with a stroller full of the cutest cats I'd ever seen
They looked like stuffed animals!
So fluffy and adorable!

Creepy face!
It was wonderful to spend two weeks in Japan with our son Jacob! We had an amazing, fun-filled time together and made memories that will last forever. We love you Jacob--aishiteimasu!! |
