Visit to Miyajima island

right there in Hiroshima. One of the famous spots in Japan. Too bad the weather wasn't perfect that day. Site of the very famous Torii(red gate) that sits in the water. When we were there, it was low tide, so we got to walk right up to it.
Deer all over the park. We also ran into everyone else there.

Enjoy!
