On November 5, 2006, I traveled with the Masaki family to Kobe University. We were going to meet up with Naoko and then explore Kobe City. Do a quick Google Search of Kobe and you will only get photos of the Earthquake that decimated the city in the early 1990's. haha. We first visited Pearl Bridge, then climbed Mt. Kobe, and finally went shopping in China Town. It was a great day and I even got to be a little sister!
Me and Okasan at a rest stop in the Hyogo-ken. In the background a famous bridge crossing Shikoku's inland sea rests, but the fog prohibited us from getting a view.
Pearl Bridge; our bus tour took us over the bridge from an island in the Inland Sea and into Kobe. Hyogo-ken.
