0 VEMBER On the morning of 8 November, after fecuperating from our Hong Kong trip, we again left Buckner Bay. This time we were to visit the cities of lwakuni and Osaka, Japan. We arrived in lwakuni on the morning of 10 November, after again traversing the Inland Sea of Japan. The highlight of our stay in lwakuni, as in so many other ports we visited throughout the cruise, was the tours available to us. Many members of the crew enjoyed the tour to Hiroshima where we saw the Peace Museum and the memorials to those who died as a result of the A-bomb blast. Hiroshima today is a large and bustling city which impressed us with the many fine department stores and the large, modern buildings which we saw there. On the way to Hiroshima, we visited Miyajima Island. This was a very quaint and scenic island where we saw 'a historic shinto shrine and shopped in the many small shops. We left Iwakuni on the morning of the l3th and continued on through the Inland Sea to the city of Osaka, Japan. Osaka is the second largest city in Japan and is noted for being a center of industry with some 9,000 factories. The cities of Osaka, Kobe and Nara are all located closely to- gether and the crew enjoyed sightseeing trips to places of interest in these areas. We left Osaka on Tuesday morning 17 November and returned to Okinawa. Our last days in Okinawa were spent preparing for our trip to Yokosuka, Japan prior to starting the return trip home. We left Okinawa for the last time on Tuesday morning 24 November and arrived in Yokosuka on the morning of 27 November. The close of November found us preparing for the long voyage home. qs .124
