Miyajima Island


Today we went to Miyajima Island which is a 20 minute train and 10 minute ferry ride from Hiroshima. Beautiful clear day.









View back from the ferry









There are deer all over the island that are not afraid of anybody and wander everywhere.
 Torri gate
 Walking up the hill to the cable car. The day was gorgeous!!!
 This is the smaller cable car. We had to go on two to get halfway up the mountain.
 No fear.
 OOOHHHH, look down.
Climbing and about halfway up to the top.
 Shrine and a bit of a rest
 Watch your head
 The TOP!!!
This was amazing.
Hiking down

These little statues were everywhere and all themed. 
Will post all later.


Hiking down we came across all these shrines tucked into the hillside.


Ha, don't mess with me. We would love to find these for our future home in the states.


Yum!!!
Lunch, loved this little restaurant and the speciality. Beer hit the spot after the long hike.
