Hiroshima

Konichiwa!!! Tourists in Japan! All Japanese pose like this when they take a picture. ofcourse we have to do it the same way! This picture is taken in the Peace Park. After being here, meeting a victim who told us about her day and showed us her scars you realise more how terrible August 6 1945 was... Tough!!

Lappi Friendship Club arrange several activities for us, like the Welcome Party and dinner with a Japanese family. Some of the poor, Japanese girls tried to drink with the Norwegians, but didn't go too well... (Later on it showed that some of the Norwegian had trouble with drinking the Japanese under the table.. haha...) Japanese beer is very good (better than sake I'd say)...




Hiroshima must be a very poular place for school kids and other tourists as well, they stopped us a few times asking for help with school assignments.






Pretty or what?! My kimono was supposed to reach the ground, but I'm too tall. Hurray, I'm tall!! hehe... It was kind of hard to move in these, even harder to sit down and do the tea ceremony. Would never be able to put it on myself, harder than the Norwegian national costyme!

A great place in Hiroshima is Otis. It's a small pub where the speciality is Mexican food. All over you can find signatures and drawings from famous people (in the animation world), for example they guy who made Toy Story. When we were there the owner played music and sang, magic!
