japanese folk song

I like Hiroshima. I think it´s even more japanese than Tokyo. Today we did the complete tourist tour except the A-bomb museum.
For me it´s interesting to see how the japanese people live with their history compared to the germans. Well, Dresden was not destroyed by an A-bomb, but the city was destroyed as well. In Dresden the Frauenkirche was rebuilt, while the A-bomb dome is cultural world heritage... So many similarities.
Yasmin had a very good day. She is in a very good mood and so she was singing german children songs, while I carried her through the city of Hiroshima. When we entered the roofed shopping mile her echo was loud. She enjoyed it so much that she sang louder and louder. When a japanese man passed by waving to her, she started to sing "Kawaii, kawaii...." Second day in a row...
