grumble grumble
Well, here are the pictures, I guess. But damn! I had written so much to go along with them! And I had been waiting for about two months for the right time to get that out of my system!
Anyway...
But please, if you can (physically, I mean. Through the blurriness), read this letter. The mayor of Hiroshima has sent an official letter of protest to the leader of the country responsible for every nuclear test since 1960 (or 1968?). The last letter was sent to North Korea, as expected. The letter before that was sent to George W. Bush in August - his second letter of this year, despite the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty signed a full decade ago.
(This is okonomiyaki - one of the many, many things I'm going to hate to leave)
And on to Miyajima
... man, I'm still feeling really bitter, at SOMETHING, right now.
(it was actually quite cold...)
(A great view of Hiroshima through a lead pipe)
Japan's Inland Sea
Siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigggggggggggghhhh.
I'm sorry. This was all much better and meaningful the first time around.
Tomorrow I'm going to the aquarium with some friends, then I'm getting naked with my Buddhist friends at the public bath. Maybe all the water will rinse out my head and I'll get back around to retyping my own nuclear arms protest later, but with everything I want to do in such a short amount of time, maybe not. Woe!
