Okayama and Hiroshima

Miyajima, Hiroshima prefecture. A really beautiful place with
some nice hiking trails once you get away from the crowds.
Hiroshima yaki. The Hiroshima form of Okonomiyaki,
a Japanese pancake. Possible ingredients are limitless.
Wandering down another in a series of random alleys in Kurashiki, Okayama.
Akiko looks bemused by my insistence on always taking the path less traveled.
Kurashiki, Okayama
Okayama prefecture. We went down to Okayama and Hiroshima for Golden Week in May. Our first stop was Okayama city where we rented bikes and rode through the countryside to Kurashiki. It was kind of idyllic and quiet and the weather was great as well. It's hard to get away from the crowds during Golden Week in Japan but we succeeded at least for a few hours.
