By now, it was around 12.30, and I decided to walk to the site of the atom bomb. This was a long walk, but I got to see a lot of Nagasaki!

Since I was walking, Google took me along a walking path. It was a steep, but beautiful, climb, through a residential area filled with cute houses, and lovely gardens.

I tried to get Google lens to help me identify flowers and plants and buildings, with mixed results. For example, Google assured me that this building was the famous stupa in Nalanda, Bihar.

I love the bikes and cars of Japan, and often miss Dheeraj, our resident automobile expert, when I see them.

As Indians, we often tend to value what is BIG. We love the big houses, with big gardens and big cars. Japan is the opposite. From my small, but adequate, hotel room, to the small and compact, yet powerful and efficient, cars and bikes all around, Japan teaches us that small is beautiful!
