Summer Trip 3 --> Hiroshima 広島

  I'll start with my last trip though..cause others all blog bout Hokkaido (Gane and Lai ) so I also feel lazy to blog bout it d..Cause we have almost the same pictures.Hehe..
    
       OK..About Hiroshima..The first city in the world to have suffered from atomic bomb.The damage..You might can't quite feel it unless you enter Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum by yourself. If it was a hydrogen-bomb,the damage could have been even worse.

       First,why did the US develop the bomb? It said in the museum that they feared that Germany had possessed of a new age bomb-atomic bomb.Bla bla bla..End up they started developing themselves.(Manhattan Project)...OK that's it.I hate history lessons.I'm sure you guys have read bout it somewhere in Form 2 or Form 3 History lessons.

       8:15 am , August 6 1945.(Charlene, realise it is your bday? ) The bomb was detonated at 600m above the city center. Heat rays and blast burned and clashed nearly all buildings within 2km of the hypocenter, took away approximately 140,000 lives.

What if it happen to KLCC huh..

Albert Einstein ,the famous scientist. Can we said he was the cause of this?
I used to respect him very much. That has changed since I visited Hiroshima.

The exact time when the bomb detonated.
In front of Peace Memorial Park.Where they have prayers every year.
The small stone under there writes 'rest in peace'
Before
After

Scientists say that the dark shadow on the stair shows that someone was sitting there.
All that left was the shadows.(in front of a bank)
This bricks were donated by 三井銀行 if I'm not mistaken.

The Black Rain,30 minutes after the bomb detonated due to the dusts.
Sound like a movie or anime huh?
  There were lots of other items,for example nails and hairs(real ones),uniforms,bricks, and 弁当(food)-rice in black color.Didn't take those pictures,cause was a lil bit too scary.

  Second day, I took an hour of 市電(city train?street car?on the road one),they name it 広電(Hiroden) to 宮島(Miyajima) ,a world heritage site.It is famous for its temple,a temple on the sea-海の上の神社. Low tide at daytime,but I wish to see high tide as well..

This thing is huge
Love this,very yeng
The whole temple will look like on the sea at night time.

My best shots

 Hiroshima's deepest wish : elimination of all nuclear weapons and the realization of a genuinely peaceful international community. Totally agree with that. I learned something really important through this visit.

結局夏は一度も会えませんでしたね。ブログの様子から日本を満喫した様子が伝わってきます。広島なんて最後に行ったのいつだろう~?奈良の鹿にえさやったのは中学生の時だったかな~。うらやましい限りです。

会えなくて残念でした。:(
うん、結構遊んできました。満喫しましたよ〜
最後は広島ですけど、夏休みはまだ一ヶ月間もあります。なかなかやることがなさそうです。
鹿の写真は奈良じゃなくて、宮島で撮ったんですよ^^
マレーシアでも先生頑張って探したらいろんな遊び場あるんじゃないですか〜〜

家族より、先生より、食べ物が恋しいの??確かにその気持ちもわかりますが…。私は先日帰ったときに食べ損ねたプリンが恋しい。コンビニに売ってる安いプリンでいいから食べたい。あ~食べ物の話は尽きないね。

恋しくないわけじゃないよ
メールとか電話よくかけてるので ^。^
今日の夜食プリンかな。。
