Sorry for the lack of updates but here's what we've been doing for the last couple of days.
- After all of the ferries were canceled due to bad weather and rough seas, our only choice was to take a flight out of Busan, South Korea. So we purchased a one-way ticket to Osaka, Japan.
- Once we landed in Osaka we then trained down to the Hot Springs city of Beppu, Japan and went to bed.
- The next day we visited an authentic Japanese Onsen (Japanese Bath.) I'll let you all look up what an Onsen is...and you can use your imagination.
- We also went to what is called the Hells, which are big boiling pools of water.
- Later that evening we trained and ferried to the city of Miyajima and ran down to it`s famous gate to take photos. Very beautiful!
- The next morning we explored the beautiful island of Miyajima. Phil loved the deer.
- The rest of the day we spent in Hiroshima. We had a great meal at of all places a Spanish restaurant. The rest of the day we spent visiting the A-bomb museum and Peace Park. The museum and park are situated at the epicenter of where the a-bomb was dropped.
- That night Julie left for home, and Phil and I went on to Osaka where we spent the night.
- Today (Saturday) Phil and I went to the city of Nara, which was one of the old capitals of Japan.
part 2 coming soon!
