Today was very sad. We had to say goodbye to our families. Everyone was crying. 

Then we went on a train to Nagoya and then got on a bullet train. The bullet trains are so fast.

We got to Hiroshima at 12:30pm and had lunch. We then got a train to our accommodation. We settled in and then went to the Hiroshima atomic bomb site. It was so sad and horrifying. At 8:15 am on August 6, 1945, the city of Hiroshima fell victim to the worlds first atomic bombing. Thousands and thousands of lives were lost. 

Dinner was very delicious, we had okonomiyaki. The restaurant was very lovely, and we saw Ryo and Yuri, two student exchange teachers, from a few years ago, that came to bright for a year.
