Hiroshima Railway Station

We waited at Hiroshima Railway Station for our guide Saori so I had time to have a good look around. Every restaurant shows samples of its food outside. The samples that are photographed look much more appetising than the "petrified" ones. We had all sorts of trouble with the food, especially packaged stuff. Dairy foods were in short supply. When I bought drinks with cows on them I usually got a yoghurt-type drink. Whenever I tried to order hot/cold chocolate or cocoa drinks I got coffee! At least I recognised the "Milo" in the vending machines. In Clybucca we ended up with big tins of Japanese "Milo" from the Nestle factory in Smithtown because they'd put the labels on upside down.
