Here's me standing on the beach.

Here's me standing on the beach, on one leg. No good reason for this.

A view out to sea from the beach. Not sure if that was an island out there or just the mainland curving round. Probably an island.

Chie and her parents, I think just before we left, partly spurred on by an imminent shower.

Back at the family's flat, from where we had a good vantage point to watch the fireworks display going on over in the centre of Hiroshima.

Chie was keen to point out how much more sophisticated Japanese fireworks are than the ones we get in England...

...this is one of the more complex fireworks, which didn't really come out in a still picture that well.
|
20:57:03
...begrudgingly I had to agree, Japanese fireworks were clearly of a higher standard, although perhaps these pictures don't really do them justice...
|
20:57:35
...they were really superb!

One of the more interesting ones, lots of smaller different coloured bursts orbiting a central big burst.

20:57:51
More of the same really...
|
20:58:00
...I think you are beginning to get the idea!

Right that's it - and I think this was more or less at the end of the display.
