Robots doko desu ka?

As you can see, we've now had our Japanese lesson and it's enabled me to ask the really important question! Where are the robots? We went to school and had a 2 hour lesson and we are now confidently asking for 2 beers please in Japanese :) It's also nice to be able to say to the waiter that we've enjoyed our meal of fried pig's oesophagus!
Been doing a bit more culture in between bouts of drinking with A + E. Had a look round Hiroshima castle, which had been there for several hundred years until it was nuked. They've rebuilt it as it was and stuck a museum inside. Lots of interesting items inside for those of us obsessed with Lone Wolf, less things of interest for Sam, although she did enjoy the dressing up :)
















The castle grounds were really nice, a very modern, but pretty shrine. All these castles that we're seeing have massive moats around them, which I'm always really impressed with, I do like a good moat! This one even interested Sam, as there were a shed load of massive Coy Carp swimming about.
Yesterday we visited the Hiroshima gardens, we'd seen a nice garden in Tokyo, but this one was miles better, very relaxing, even the day decided to become warm for a change. This garden has only been around for the last 60 years obviously, I guess when we go to Kyoto we'll be seeing some gardens that have been around for hundreds of years. The layout of the gardens are so impressive, around every corner is a new thing to see and it's all layed out so perfectly! Beautiful!
Gonna go to the cinema today and see Memoirs of a Geisha and maybe have another beer or 2 :) I'll leave you with a little slide show of some of the things we've seen in Hiroshima.
