1. Indeed….August 6th. Remembering the Hibakusha. Bless us all – everyone, everywhere.

2. Well, we indeed have made the big-time now, Japanese tour groups and everything!

3. Maybe August 6th isn’t the time to speak ill of any Japanese people, whether in tour groups or not. Thanks, Raquel.

4. May I suggest a good read……At Dawn We Slept. Perhaps one’s attitude on the events of August 6th and 8th 1945 would be different after you read the book.
   Not saying one way or the other. Read it for yourself.

5. Bill,
   The Hibakusha are the people who were injured by the atomic bombs in Hiroshima and Nagasaki. I think Raquel was remembering their pain not saying bad things about the Japanese people. There is plenty of information about this word if you google it to see what it means.
