Japan Adventure

After we paid our bill (about $400 - ALL inclusive - gotta love national healthcare!) we stopped in this nice coffee shop inside the hospital. I was still thirsty & iced coffee always satisfies me!


Here I am -sitting up & taking nourishment! All that water poured on my head has made my hair curl - but I've started embracing my curls in my old age . . .


Stan got us a sandwich (oops, we missed lunch!) and our coffees. Thanks!


Cute bunny origami on display in the hospital. This made me think of Barbara . . .


And a box and beach umbrellas. I can't imagine how long these take . . .


I took this picture outside the hospital so I would know where I had been!


Hiroshima City Hospital is a big, beautiful hospital!


And we took a taxi to the station - since we really didn't know where we were! Guess we'll see the museum another day, but perhaps we'll take a taxi to the top!


Beautiful sunset clouds from the window of the train.


And crossing a river after sunset.


I was feeling SO much better, so from Iwakuni Station we walked over to Monte Beer for a cool drink & dinner. I chose the salmon carpaccio - something COOL! And delicious . . .


Stan chose the home-made noodles that are not only HOT . . .


. . . but spicy hot!


Then we shared a cool dessert.


We walked back over to the train station to catch a taxi - (no biking home for me!), but first some fresh flowers. But not these - I think they're beautiful, but I'm very sensitive to them - they always make my throat burn, my eyes water & make me cough . . .
