The participants folded paper cranes, read poetry, and floated candles out onto Austin’s Towne Lake. Each lantern represented a soul lost during the atomic bombings. http://images.fotki.com/logo3.gif http://private.fotki.com/mmsalaza/documentary/hiroshimanagasaki-m/ http://private.fotki.com/mmsalaza/documentary/hiroshimanagasaki-m/img4508.html Hanging the paper cranes
