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!

Traditional New Year's decoration hanging above a door. These stay up until January 14, when they are all taken down & burned in a huge bonfire. As the flames and smoke rise, people pray for heath & blessing for the new year. We're going to try to attend this festival at the Kintai in Iwakuni this year. Posted by Picasa
