Just returned from a trip to Kyushu... dead tired!
The latest Japanese Culture article is up, and this week, the spotlight is on the Himeyuri Peace Museum. Check it out!

Himeyuri Peace Museum

What a sad story. There are so many real life stories that are left unheard. Thank you for telling some of them.

I feel sad that so many people live very tragic lives.

Here's a pic of the Himeyuri Monument, just outside the museum. This is the site of one of the hospital caves those schoolgirls had worked in. See the hole? That's the actual cave.

And some more pix...
