Ishinomaki Memorial

I think I remember Eric saying that this wall says, keep going Ishinomaki. 

This has the date 2011.3.11 on it along with photos of the surrounding area. The pictures are hard to see, but you can really see how destructive the tsunami was.

Behind those photos was a post that marked how high the water was. It's hard to tell how high that was, but it was quite high. 

A spot on the other side was where many have left flowers. 

In front was a big long planter full of huge sunflowers. 

Across the street from the memorial, more signs and vending machines. 

There was also a view of a cemetery. 

I really wanted better photos, but this was from a moving van. What a sight to see with all the piled up cars from the tsunami. 

All over you can see abandoned bare buildings and machines still clearing remaining debris. Must be hard to have such constant reminders everywhere you look.
