The internet connection is off but I cansyill write inthis blog connection. Hope I dont lose it as I did two days ago after writing for a hour. Temperature screening is still going on for an hour. I will take half a day to finish the disembarkation proceedures. Much longer than anywhere else. Altho were are here five days there is less planned than usual. Two days with no trips. We are in the city and will have toi get around on our own. Do plan a trip to Hiroshima on the bullet train on Friday. We have made 1000 paper cranes to give to the children of hope. It was supposed to be a small trip but is growing as there are few options. Big trips are getting very dificult. Many people, students and faculty are going indpendently, but not here. It is too expensive. Even the rail pass is over 200 dollars.
There was a fireboa and a brass band as we approached the harbor at 8 AM. We all marched around the deck as a thank you to the band. It was a rousing welcome dispite the rain.
