More forum topics Trip tips Shinkansen trains connect Tokyo station and Hiroshima (4.5hrs, ¥18,550 one-way), while overnight buses leave from Tokyo Station’s Yaesu south exit (12hrs, ¥21,200 round-trip). Hiroshima’s sites are easily negotiable by foot, but the city’s tram system connects the main JR station with the city center and beyond. Hotel 28 Hiroshima (082-247-2811) is a centrally located, functional business hotel. At ¥4,000 for a small single room, this is possibly the city’s most reasonable offering. For something more upmarket, the ANA Hotel Hiroshima (082-241-1111) offers twin rooms for ¥20,000. Some guidebooks recommend the World Friendship Center (082-503-3191), run by an anti-nuclear NPO (¥3,500/p including breakfast). The Hiroshima City Hotel and Ryokan Union can be contacted at 082-261- 0074. There are two city information desks at the JR Station and another excellent facility at the Rest House inside the Peace Park (082-247-6738).

For 15 years since first coming to Japan, I have put off visiting Hiroshima. Having seen other examples of the terrors of war—Ho Chi Minh’s War Remnants Museum (in those days less ambiguously named the American War Atrocities Museum), for example—I decided Hiroshima could wait. This year, however, marks the 60th anniversary of the bombing, a suitable time, I thought, to stop putting it off and confront the world’s most damning testimony against nuclear warfare. For two days I roamed the city’s broad boulevards and narrow alleyways, crossing the many bridges that link several islands formed by rivers snaking through the city’s heart—a striking geographical feature that helped seal Hiroshima’s fate. For the most part, Hiroshima today is a succinct example of how Japan rose from the ashes of war and rebuilt itself to become the economic power it is today. There’s a bustling business zone, ubiquitous nighttime neon and a bubbly soapland district. Red-faced business-folk tumble out of eateries serving okonomiyaki, the savory pancake that locals will tell you is Hiroshima’s contribution to world cuisine, while a few hundred die-hard fans cheer on the local baseball team, the Hiroshima Carp, doing overtime battle with the Yokohama Bay Stars. Yet, there are ample reminders of that tragic morning in 1945 when the Enola Gay off-loaded the “Little Boy” bomb and blew what was then a little-known provincial city straight onto the map of global consciousness. At the entranceway to Fukuro-machi Elementary School, which was recently turned into a museum, an enlarged panoramic photo—the first to be snapped after the bombing—reveals the scale of the destruction. The city, quite simply, is desolate. Inside the school, messages penned on the stairwell by desperate survivors appealing for information about missing relatives are testimony to the anguish they suffered. The authors have been traced, and their heart-wrenching stories imaginatively documented. Across the river, at the city’s main museum, there are copious more reminders of individual tragedies: charred lunchboxes, ripped school uniforms, melted bottles, a step from the entrance of the Bank of Japan, blackened where a vaporized blast victim had been sitting. There’s nothing on the shock scale of Ho Chi Minh’s museum here—no pickled Agent Orange specimen or images of torture and execution—but enough to turn stomachs of those not yet desensitized by “Nuke the f***ers”-style Hollywood flicks or Al Jazeera-style churn-alism. From the second floor, a long glass-fronted corridor affords a panoramic view across the city’s Peace Park and the nearby cenotaph. Under this memorial—a graceful arc of granite that frames the nearby Peace Flame—a chamber houses tomes listing the names of the 230,000-plus victims, many of whom died from radiation-related illnesses. Here I chat at length with Yuriko Anno, 79, who visits weekly from Ninoshima, a nearby island where thousands of hibakusha, as the A-bomb victims are known, are buried, to pray for relatives and friends who perished. Anno survived because she was transporting family belongings to a new home some 30km away when the bomb was detonated. Like many of Hiroshima’s peace proponents, she expresses bitterness over Japan’s continued endeavors in nuclear power development and recent conflicts in which her country has been involved as “peacekeepers.” “Someone once said, ‘The only thing we have learned from history is that we never learn from history,’” she remarks. “Anyone who believes in war as a solution to anything should come right here.” By now we have meandered through the Peace Park, past the Flame of Peace and the Children’s Peace Monument, where a group of school kids are solemnly chanting prayer and draping countless rows of colorful paper cranes in deference to Hiroshima’s most famous child, Sadako Sasaki—the leukemia victim of “1,000 Cranes” fame. We come to a halt by the Hiroshima Prefectural Industrial Promotion Hall, which under rather different circumstances would likely have been replaced by a searing shiny structure housing collars and ties. Yet this is the original Ground Zero, now a World Heritage Site and the symbol for which the city is known worldwide. More commonly known as the A-Bomb Dome, it is the only remaining physical evidence of the attack. Its burnt and mangled shell serves as a chilling reminder of the A-bomb’s destructive force. As Anno continues her tale—of how her sister was killed instantly in the grounds of her school—I try to imagine the sight of a 1 million Centigrade force capable of buckling a meter-think iron girder, of wiping out an entire city in a micro-second or imprinting a human shadow on stone. I can’t. So I turn to the only item of comfort at hand, face the music and press the shutter. Would you like to comment on this article? Send a letter to the editor at letters@metropolis.co.jp .

Production Company: Catch Productions, Hallway Pictures, Bird and a Bear Entertainment, Fox Searchlight Pictures USA Box Office: $31 Million Budget Estimate: $12 Million Filming Locations: Bakersfield, California, USA| Los Angeles, California, USA| Santa Clarita, California, USA Editorial Reviews Amazon.com Cedric the Entertainer ( Barbershop , Intolerable Cruelty ) lends his stubborn, skeptical charm to Johnson Family Vacation . Though separated from his wife (Vanessa Williams, Soul Food , Shaft ), Nate Johnson (Cedric) pulls his family together so that they can compete for an award at the Johnson family reunion. Of course, the road trip from California to Missouri--featuring a sexy but crazy hitchhiker, motel high jinks, and an afternoon in jail--threatens to split up the family permanently. The humor of Johnson Family Vacation is rambling and ridiculous--for example, Williams fools Cedric into taking his swim trunks off in a motel hot tub, then leaves him to tiptoe through the motel naked. But Cedric and Williams both have undeniable charisma; together, they carry this shaggy dog of a movie through its more lackadaisacal moments. Also featuring Bow Wow, Solange Knowles, Shannon Elizabeth ( American Pie ), and Steve Harvey ( Love Don't Cost a Thing ). --Bret Fetzer Customers who viewed this DVD also viewed Guess Who DVD ~ Bernie Mac Breakin' All the Rules (Special Edition) DVD ~ Jamie Foxx Beauty Shop (Full Screen Edition) DVD ~ Queen Latifah White Chicks (Unrated and Uncut Edition) DVD ~ Shawn Wayans Explore Similar Items : in DVD , in Music Spotlight Reviews Write an online review and share your thoughts with other customers. 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful: Take a Vacation..... , October 22, 2004 Reviewer: V. Marshall (North Fork, CA USA) - See all my reviews Meet the new generation's vacationing family as they travel from California to Missouri and encounter all sorts of silly experiences along the way. Nate Johnson (played by Cedric the Entertainer) begins his family vacation by picking up his SUV from the dealer and finding out he now has a "hip-hop mobile" complete with hydraulics and rapper wheels. His son, (Lil' Bow Wow), now of course thinks of his dad as cool. Estranged from his wife (Vanessa Williams), Nate has convinced her to take a ride to his family reunion along with his teenage boy-crazy daughter (Solange Knowles) and his youngest child (Gabby Soleil). All kinds of funny things happen along the road and family issues begin to come to a head. The reunion is hilarious with Nate and his brother (Steve Harvey) competing for their mother's attention....let the competitions begin! Cedric the Entertainer is very funny in his role as the nerdy insurance selling dad; he is a gifted performer and has the chance to show off all his stuff in this role. Vanessa Williams is still beautiful and amazingly good as the serious Johnson mom. Lil Bow Wow shows he is not all hip-hop in his role as the Johnson son. Solange Knowles is perfectly cast as the teenage Johnson daughter with an eye for the boys. And how sweet is little Gabby Soleil as the youngest Johnson. Of course Steve Harvey cannot be denied as the competitive Johnson brother. The best part of this movie is the talent contest at the reunion where we get to see Cedric in all his glory and Harvey doing a "Miss Jackson" routine! This movie is light-hearted and entertaining for the whole family with a heartwarming ending of course so sit back and let the Johnson's do the driving. Was this review helpful to you? ( Report this ) 4 of 7 people found the following review helpful: Entertaining...even WITH its flaws! , May 7, 2004 Reviewer: Reginald D. Garrard (Camilla, GA USA) - See all my reviews This is one of those movies that can be divided into "pluses" and "minuses". The good points: 1) Although Cedric the Entertainer's "Nate Johnson" is estranged from wife "Dorothy" (Vanessa Williams), the couple has reconciled somewhat to take their kids to the annual family reunion. This provides for one of the few times that a "nuclear" black family is represented in film. 2) A killer soundtrack of "old school" favorites enhances the on-screen happenings. 3) Location scenes add to the "realism" of the family's journey. 4) Native Americans are portrayed as savvy entrepreneurs that "humor" the unenlightened tourist. 5) This is not a bad, first-time effort for director Christopher Erkin. The minuses: 1) Some of the vignettes are derivative of other films of the genre, especially the Chevy Chase movies. 2) Nate's daughter "Nikki" (Solange Knowles) perpetuates the stereotype of the oversexed teen nymphet. 3. Bow Wow, definitely not playing against type, is Nate's son, "D.J.", a wannabe-rapper. 4. Jokes are made at the expense of "big-boned" women, continuing the tradition of laughing at FAT folks. 5. A rather disgusting scene involving a bodily function and a drink cup. Even though, they're evenly separated, the "strengths" of the pluses makes this film mildly recommended.

LOVED IT!!! , December 5, 2005 Reviewer: Wizeone (St. Louis, MO) - See all my reviews This is a movie of a middle class African-American family. It shows how competition, distance, support and the urge to stay connected affects the family. This movie also shows how all races have stereotypes of other races and also of different class structures within the race. The story is told in a humorous way including musical selections. The theme of the movie is family is the nucleus of society and can remain strong through any obstacle. The movie stars Cedric the Entertainer as Nate Johnson who is married to Vanessa Williams. The have two daughters and one son played by Bow Wow. Nate Johnson is a successful insurance company employee living in suburban area of California. His wife is going back to school to become a CPA which has caused them to separate due to Nate's inability to support his wife's dreams. So he moves around the corner from their home. Steve Harvey plays Mack Johnson, Nate's older brother. He is married with one daughter and one son. He still lives in Caruthersville, Missouri their hometown. Competition between the brothers still is ongoing to gain their mother's affection. The family reunion is coming up and the bragging begins on which of the brothers families will win the "Family of the Year" trophy. Most of the movie is the travel Nate and his family take cross country to get to the family reunion in Missouri. Nate's wife agrees to go because it is the youngest daughter's birthday as well. The youngest daughter has created an imaginary friend to deal with the separation of her parents. This is how she is dealing with loss, loss of the family structure. Stereotypes that are portrayed by Nate are his view of rappers that their lifestyle is a waste of time. This is the dream his son has to become a rapper. Also, he thinks Native Americans should be or dress in cultural attire. Society and Nate's perception that a beautiful woman is skinny and that woman should be happy just being a wife and mother. All of his stereotypes change by the end of the movie. Nate and his wife reconciled, the brothers came together, and the daughter no longer needed her imaginary friend all because the family structure survived and still loved each other.

The home is located in the quaint neighborhood of in Lakeview/Wrigleyville; the European-like charm will captivate you. It is here that you will enjoy a wide variety of culturally diverse restaurants, live performances at one of our Landmark theaters, and spending the day shopping the countless array of unique boutiques and galleries. And, let us not forget, Lakeview is home to our beloved Cubs. Nothing beats a Cubs game and one (or two) of those famous Chicago dogs! No matter what your taste or interest, you will find it here. Though it is quite possible you may never want to leave the neighborhood, it would be a shame to miss out on all the city has to offer.
