I've taken a video of some shops in Okayama while we were walking to catch the train to Hiroshima. It was amazing as the shop roll doors all opened at the same time and then they were ready for business. Anyway here it is
We caught the shincansen from ........ this time we had separate seats and I was lucky enough to sit next to a girl from Austen Texas who has just arrived here to teach children english. She was extremely nice and we will keep in contract via FACEBOOK which should be good. She will be based in a town just outside Hiroshima for the next 12 months.
We caught a taxi from the station to the hotel and once again we are pretty impressed with this hotel line Daiwa Roynet Hotels. Last night the cost was around $15,000 yen tonight its only 9500 (around 110.00 au).
We went to the hotel and left our luggage and then walked over the Hiroshima museum. I can't understand why people are hell bent on hurting each other. Anyhow after a considerable time there we walked back to the hotel and had a rest and now Alan has gone out to look at something else. My feet at this minute are quite sore so I was better staying here.
Here is a photo of the road that I was just talking about! Its not a really good photo but from the roof in from of me to the buildings on the other side that's how big the shopping centre is and it must be at least 1 klm long, give or take a meter.
