Miyajima Island











Today we journeyed by tram, train, ferry, foot and cable car to reach the top of mount Misen on Miyajima Island. We waved to everyone who passed us on the cable car.































Before going up the mountain we looked around the sites and the shops.







Look who turned up. Again.












We saw at least three big eagles from the cable car.


The view from the top.













Ducking stones.





This temple is almost at the top of the mountain. The photograph cannot capture the atmosphere of the location.










Way to the top but this is on the way down. Note the incredibly sweaty T-shirt.























The floating Tori gate at Miyajima.













You have already eaten Shirley's dinner, now get lost. Shortly after this it attacked the bags holding some souveniers we had bought.
