A very close friend of mine was fortunate to visit Japan for a one month long training course. I was overjoyed for her. Experiencing a foreign culture for such a long period of time is a very defining moment in one's life journey.

Here are some of her photos (lots of it actually) which she's happy to share with us all. Thank you so much dear (you know who you are), luv you dearly for this, ;-)

Sigh, I should have posted these photos up last Saturday, 6th August 2005, which was the 60th anniversary of the Hiroshima bombing and observed a moment of silence then.

But it's ok. Usually, the aftermath of tremendous horror will bring about beauty and charm in the world. Just like how Japan has blossomed like a new spring after the war years. So the photos signifies this, 2 days after the annivesary.

A tribute to Sadako Sasaki.


"This is our cry, This is our prayer, Peace in the world."
