Today, I received confirmation from a ryokan in Miyajima for a 2-night stay. Bus tickets was also purchased to Hiroshima today so I am set for next weekend!
The itineary will be a night bus to Hiroshima (approx. 9hrs), arrive around 9am, where then I will proceed to see the WWII monument for the nuclear bombing. Then I will take the tram to the ferry which will take me to the island of Miyajima. It is suppose to be one of the three most beautiful places to visit in Japan. I am sure you will recognize some of the scenary when I post the pictures later.
The ryokan I am staying at is suppose to be very nice and includes breakfast and dinner. There is also an onsen (public bath,, like a hot tub) of which I can use. I am VERY excited about this trip as the classmates here has confirmed that it is a definite-must to visit.
Since I am only here for 2 months, I have to take the opportunity to travel as soon as I can. Otherwise, I really don't know what the possibilites are for me to travel once school gets busy!
The last few days have been laid back. I find the I am actually quite tired from the site seeing and walking around the city. Guess I am getting OLD! More updates to come once classes starts the coming Thurs. Cheers.
