The final leg of our Japan trip was spent in Hiroshima before heading back to Tokyo for last minute souvenir shopping before leaving for the U.S. We checked into our hotel at the Ana Crowne Plaza; found a yummy place to eat dinner, and then spent the next day viewing a few amazing historic landmarks.

 |
| We got in late and didn't hit the hay until after the guests in the room below us complained--we got a call from the front desk after 11pm! |
 |
| All our stuff in these small hotels really junked them up, but we had fun! |
 |
| Yummy ramen shop that Jacob especially enjoyed |
 |
| Mike and Jacob excitedly await their dinner order |
 |
| The delicious moyashi tastes great alone or added to ramen |
 |
| Steamed, pan-fried gyoza was a favorite appetizer |
 |
| Mike's fancy pork broth ramen with pork, seaweed, and a raw egg on top |
 |
| Condiments of roasted seaweed and scallions |
 |
| Jacob's dark broth ramen with pork (kurouma) |
 |
| My regular pork broth ramen with pork |
 |
| View of the domed building (Genbaku dome) that survived the first atomic bombing in Hiroshima in 1945 |

 |
| Beautiful tree on our way to the domed building |
 |
| This little boy in a kimono had just tripped and fallen before we took this picture of him and his parents |
 |
| Cool shot of the domed building and Mike from the bridge |
 |
| Can't get enough of these fall colors (near the river)! |
 |
| This man and his bike caught my attention |
