JAPAN ADVENTURE

Welcome to Margie & Stan's Japan Adventure - our photo blog while living on MCAS Iwakuni in beautiful Yamaguchi Prefecture in Western Japan from 8/2004 to present. My photo above is the famous Kintai Bridge right here in Iwakuni. Be sure to check out Blog Archive (below left) for highlights of our travels. And leave us a comment - we'd love to hear from you!

Although it's very cold today, there are people walking across the Kintai Bridge for good luck.


Interesting car. Not a VW bug like I thought at first . . . maybe British?


We're on the street that leads to the Kintai Bridge in front of our favorite second-hand store. We don't know it's name, but we watched this building being built a few years ago with the most beautiful wood. When we first shopped here, it was a little "hole-in-the-wall" area -- very primitive, and the father of the family (an older gentleman) was always the one working there. Now, the son pretty much seems to be in charge. There are always lots of interesting goodies and pieces of furniture here.
