A big day out today. After saying goodbye to our wonderful host families, we hopped on a local train first to Himeji and then the Shinkansen to Hiroshima. After a quick change, it was off to Miyajima.
We traveled by ferry to the island of Miyajima where we were greeted by the local (I eat everything) deer. A few hours of shopping and lunch was followed by a visit to the beautiful Itsukushima Shrine. Some of us were even lucky enough to see a Japanese wedding!
Sadly the weather turned bad, so it was back to Hiroshima. After a quick rest in the hotel, we headed of to Okonomimura, 3 floors of oknomiyaki restaurants. Yummy!!
After a quick visit to Daiso, it was Mister Donut for desert. An early night tonight (hopefully) will be followed by a morning of exploring Hiroshima before getting on the Shinkansen to Tokyo.
