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!

Seeing Avatar 3D in Downtown Iwakuni

Once we park in this small lot downtown (whoohoo - we got the last available space!), a bar comes up underneath to lock our car in place. When we return, we enter in the number of our space into this machine & it tells us how much yen we owe.


Our car just before the bar goes up underneath . . .


The theater is just around the corner on the main street.




What I DIDN'T get a picture of, were the cozy fleece lap blankets stacked on shelves as we entered the theater. Very thoughtful . . . Notice that Stan's reasonably sized popcorn serving is covered in a plastic bag to help eliminate mess. Also, our goodies came in a small plastic bag we could use for our trash.

Stan in his cute 3D glasses.


Here's his glasses. Oops, I flashed . . .

The movie was FABULOUS and it made me cry. I want to believe that in the future (when this movie takes place) our country will have changed it's foreign policy, so we are no longer taking what we want by force & ignoring the indigenous people & their cultures . . .
