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!

Everyone is enjoying this warm summer day.


Children are cooling off in the river.


Cute little girl in front of us is posing for her dad, but much more interested in looking into the river!


Behind us, two people in beautiful costumes.


Taiko drums are set up in the center of the bridge.


Pretty girls in pink kimono atop the Kintai Bridge.


Wow! Look at this - the opening ceremonies have begun as a long flowing banner is carried across the bridge.


This is the front of the long banner.


That may be the pretty young woman we saw in a fancy costume . . .


How pretty . . .
