My family and I, along with our Japanese family, stayed in Grand Prince Hotel Hiroshima for two days during our three-day Hiroshima Road Trip last December 25 - 26, 2022. This was my 419th and 420th day here in Japan as an ALT under the JET Programme. Overall, it was an amazing experience for us. I was able to maximize my experience by exploring Ujina Island during the early morning of our second day here.
