Today is the 64th anniversary of the dropping of an atomic bomb on the city of Hiroshima. Here is a photo I took in Hiroshima last May:
If ever you travel to Japan, I highly recommend taking a day trip to Hiroshima. The Peace Park is beautiful, and the museum is educational and sobering (and costs less than $1 to get in).
The Big Picture has a number of photographs, many from the museum in Hiroshima, that are worth a look. (Thank you, Angie, for the link!)
