On Monday, August 7 we went to Hiroshima. We took the Green car which is SUPER nice bullet train there. First we went on one for 15 minutes then we on one for an hour and thirty minutes .While we were in the train we went through a mountain and it took ten minutes to get out of the tunnel. My mom got a typhoon (hurricane) alert and the typhoon is called Typhoon 5. Me and V were excited but Izzy was scared. We didn't see it but it made it cooler.
We got an Air B and B in Hiroshima. Then we went to the Peace Park which has a bunch of memorials and it had a dome that got bombed in the world war 2. We saw a picture of before and after and it is super cool. I wish we could go inside but there are no floors. There is a statue for Sadako. She was a girl that was effected by the bomb when she was 2 and died when she was 12. Her goal was to fold a thousand paper cranes to get better, but before could finish she died. The was also a museum we went to and it told you about the Atomic bomb and the dangers of nuclear weapons. There was some very creepy pictures. I saw one where a girl had a giant scar on her face. The bomb's middle part was about as hot as the surface of the sun and maybe even hotter. Everybody in the building disappeared because it was so hot.
That must have been very emotional. So interesting especially after your interview with your grandfather. But it looks like you found some good eats and fun! What are the colorful ribbon looking things?!
