Day 4 Nagasaki

This morning we flew to Nagasaki & hired a 2014 Toyota Prius-only had 
204 km's on the clock, nice to drive. We went to Mt Inasa and was blown away by the view, we then went to the Peace Park near the blast site of the atomic bomb and the Atomic Bomb Museum, sobering thoughts, I'm not blood thirsty but I think everyone should visit places like these in order to see what war does. Finally, we went to Hypocentre where the bomb actually detonated 500 mtrs above the ground, nearly 162,000 people lost their lives.
