MCAS Iwakuni Fall Bazaar 10/16/10

Late Saturday morning at the Fall Bazaar. Stan is toasting his best friend Bill who had surgery yesterday in the US. We're at the sake booth "tasting". . .


This one's for you, Bill!


We actually spent most of our time here since the rest of the bazaar was a bit of a disappointment this year - much smaller and no plants! I bought some pineapple liquor that is just WAY too delicious . . .


If it looks different in here (to my knowledgeable readers) it's because the Mac Dome, where the bazaar used to be held, was torn down recently, so it's being held in two adjoining hangars near the PO . . . not nearly as convenient, and much more security, since it's on the flight line.


We didn't buy much - a few presents & some sake for us ;-) but I found two absolutely beautiful rama that I could not live without! Of course, I hauled them home on my trusty bike! Want to read more about Japanese rama & see photos of how they are used? Read more RIGHT HERE, but don't forget to arrow back . . .
