After a night of heavy eating on New Years Eve, we thought it would be a good idea to start the New Year out with a hike. We hiked the hills around the Ushita section of Hiroshima. This is the hills we see out our living room/kitchen window. It is a beautiful 3 hr hike.
The Futabayam Peace Pagoda. Our apartment is on the other side of this hill.
Nathan cooling down after the climb. It was about 27 deg F (-5 deg C). Needles to say the coat went back on pretty quickly.
Miyajima is the island on the right side of the picture
There is still some snow on the north face
These houses only have a small sidewalk to them (no driveway/road). It looks like it would be a 100 meter hike, up hill, to get anything home. I have a hard time imagining that.
