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!

Monday - Bike Riding

Look at the cool display at the MCAS Fire Station (on base)! We've ridden our bikes over here to try to find the indoor pool at the Japanese gym. I've been told by the Aquatics manager that I can swim there until our indoor pool reopens on Nov 3 - but we could not find it, so we decide to ride off-base. It's a beautiful day!


We're near 3-corners off base trying to find a bicycle shortcut to the community center where I have my chigerie class. Now that Ingrid is gone until mid-January, I'll be riding with Barbara (thanks, Barbara!), but I thought it might be good to know how to get there by bike -- just in case.


The streets are very narrow in this very quiet neighborhood, and we keep running into dead-ends. At the bottom left of the photo is a folding fence across someone's driveway.
