We arrived in Hiroshima early with an excursion to the island of Miyajima. A 10 minute ferry ride brought us next to the often pictured O- Torii Gate. The town was small and taken up with large areas devoted to the Itsukushima Shrine which was first built in 503. We left the rain in Kobe helping our visit to Miyajima to be beautiful and sunny. Miyajima has been worshipped as a divine island since ancient times.








It was a magical day. Loved it.
Cheers and good night Joey.
